Security meets the world of gaming

The gaming sector is one of the fast growing members of the IT industry. Besides the normal threats that every tech company faces in their day-to-day operations, developing games has its own subset of particular and unique challenges. Playing games should be fun and exciting, but at the same time our players should also feel confident in knowing that all the security aspects are taken into account when such software behemoths are built. This talk is aimed at presenting what the “attack surface” looks like when your business is creating games.

This presentation is co-presented with Razvan Stere, Tech Lead Security Engineering EA.​
