CGGE: Why you’d develop this technology? Is it only for mobile gaming or it can ben used in PC game or other areas, also?

Our mobile protection solution is based on the experience of our world’s #1 PC Anti Tamper product. So, there is already a PC and console product out and we are now extending it to the mobile market.

CGGE: Will you plan to promote this technology worldwide?

We already have customers and trials running in US, EU as well as in Asian countries like China and Japan.

CGGE: Including this technology, are you developing any new technology also?

Our latest new products are the Mobile Protection Solution and an Anti-Cheat Solution for PC. Denuvo’s Mobile Anti-Tamper is also augmented by a team of Intelligence Analysts with backgrounds in the video game, hacking, law enforcement and military, to ensure that any attempts to circumvent the security measures are detected early on. This team works hand in hand with video game clients to ensure their security is preserved.

CGGE: What do you think of China’s mobile gaming market? Will you introduce this technology to Chinses game developers?

China is a very exciting market from a gaming perspective, and we are presently focused on introduction of our technology there.

CGGE: Do you have any potential Chinese partners and will develop the business here?

We support the WeGames platform and offer premium security for games on that platform, and are certainly looking for new partners to accelerate our growth in China.

Thanks!
