Beyond the game's content and gameplay, stable operation is also crucial. If server attacks disrupt normal operations, it can lead to player complaints, significant churn, diminished reputation, and financial losses for the developer.
The most common type of cyberattack is a DDoS attack. Attackers control a large number of compromised computers to flood game servers with random commands, causing the servers to become overloaded or even crash within a short period of time.
However, effective prevention can be achieved by employing high-defense servers and standardized system rules, whereas the other type—game login attacks—is more challenging to address.
Login attacks also consume significant server resources, preventing legitimate players from accessing the game. Unlike DDoS attacks, however, the commands sent in login attacks comply with the game's rules. Servers must expend more CPU and memory processing these commands, thereby consuming greater resources.
In addition to causing server crashes and preventing players from logging in normally, login attacks may also result in the theft of players' virtual assets and unauthorized account access in certain cases.
Therefore, gaming companies must implement security measures to protect accounts and servers from login attack threats. To address the cyberattack risks faced by games, JikGuard has developed a proven protection solution that has been integrated into multiple popular games and demonstrated outstanding protective capabilities.
Anti-Login and Registration Attack Functionality
JikGuard employs multiple verification methods to validate game login and registration requests, automatically filtering out illegitimate requests. This resolves challenges such as server resource consumption caused by login attacks and automated registration by cybercrime operations.
Data Validation Functionality
JikGuard provides data validation capabilities to precisely verify game upload and download data, ensuring the security of game communication protocols and preventing network attacks.
