loading version… [changelog]
Anti-Cheat Toolkit (ACTk) was created to help you protect your Unity applications and games from cheaters & hackers (not from all obviously – skilled and well-motivated person can hack anything).
ACTk will save you a lot of development effort hours and bring handcrafted years of anti-cheat expertise and experience.
Serves both as an out-of-the-box solution and as a powerful tool in a professional hand if you wish to go further and build the own ACTk-based solution.
Feel free to check out live WebGL Demo (best view in latest Chrome and Firefox)!

Read further to find out more about each feature.
Obscured types ▶ tutorial
Keeps your sensitive variables away from all memory scanners and searchers (Cheat Engine, Game Guardian and such).
All basic and few Unity-specific types are covered.
Detects cheating attempts.
Obscured Prefs & Obscured File
Protects Player Prefs and binary files from common cheating threats:
• identify and read sensitive data (encryption)
• tamper sensitive data (genuine check)
• share cheated files \ saves with more cheaters (device or user ID lock)
Obscured Prefs â–¶ tutorial
This tool is going to help you secure all sensitive data you save to the PlayerPrefs. All you need to do to leverage its power – just replace regular PlayerPrefs with ObscuredPrefs in your code where you save sensitive data.
Highlights:
• automatic data migration
• automatic crypto keys management
• simple generic API and more data types compared to vanilla Player Prefs
• Player Prefs and Obscured Prefs editor window
Prefs Editor:
View, find, edit, create, delete and encrypt \ decrypt PlayerPrefs and ObscuredPrefs in one window.
Great for prefs debugging during development.
Works on Win, Mac and Linux.
Has paging and processing progress bar for huge prefs collections.
Obscured File & Obscured File Prefs ▶ tutorial
This tool helps save sensitive data to the binary files to keep it safe from cheaters. Use either ObscuredFile instances to save and load byte arrays or static ObscuredFilePrefs class with generic APIs to save and load different data types in PlayerPrefs-alike manner.
Highlights:
• background threads-friendly (to avoid IO hiccups)
• simple and easy to use Player Prefs-alike API wrapper
Code Hash Generator
Generates a code hash signature (both in Editor and Runtime) to compare against the current hash and make sure compiled code was not altered.
Provides hashes for both whole build and separate files in build (helpful for aab Android App Bundles).
Uses background threads to calculate hashes, keeping CPU footprint low.
For Windows Standalone and Android only so far.
Android App Installation Source Validator
Makes you aware from what source your game was installed, be it Google Play, Galaxy Store, manual installation via Package Installer or something else.
Android Screen Recording prevention
Allows easily enable or disable screenshot and screen recording prevention for most non-rooted Android-based operating systems.
Speed Hack Detector â–¶ tutorial
Makes you aware of nasty cheaters trying to slow down or speed up your game.
Correctly reacts to the time glitches.
Allows to resist speed hacks with SpeedHackProofTime class.
Time Cheating Detector
Uses Internet connection to get reliable time.
Reacts to both incorrect system time and actual cheating during or between sessions, allowing you to catch people who change time to speedup long-term processes (like building process, energy restore, etc).
Works with weak internet connection.
WallHack Detector â–¶ tutorial
Covers 3 common wall hack types:
• shoot through the walls
• walk through the walls
• look through the walls
Uses generic sandbox approach allowing to detect unknown cheats.
Injection Detector â–¶ tutorial
Reacts on foreign managed Mono assemblies, both injected at runtime or into the build on PC and Android.
Third-party plugins
Compatibility
• Windows Standalone and Android are supported by Code Hash Generator at this moment. Will cover more platforms in future updates.
• Injection Detector supports Mono builds only since IL2CPP can’t have managed injections.
Documentation
Overall highlights
• detailed User Manual with examples and tips
• examples scene
• video tutorials
Easy to extend:
• full API Reference
• full C# sources included! 🔥
• explore, learn, extend and build a fully customized anti-cheat solution for your games!
