Riot is trying to improve its competitive integrity in Valorant

Since its release last year, Riot has tried to keep Valorant more user friendly. To improve the competitive integrity of the game, the developers have introduced their own anti-cheat system.

Riot uses a strong anti-cheat system which helps the game to be free from any hackers. The game detects any use of third-party software quite efficiently and hands a permanent ban to the users.

Since the launch of Windows 11, Riot has enhanced their security level as well. Developers are set to enforce both TPM and Secure boot to play Valorant on Windows 11.

Players on Windows 11 are getting a message:

This build of Vanguard requires TPM version 2.0 and secure boot to be enable in order to play.

This will make it much harder to cheat. In addition to that, HWID bans will not be bypassed due to how TPM works, but this strategy should be adopted.
