The client should submit intents rather than authoritative results, while the server checks timing, physics constraints, permissions, and game-state consistency. Describe how you would investigate a suspected exploit reported by players. I would first reproduce or characterize the report using telemetry, server logs, crash reports, and relevant match data. I would compare expected and observed state transitions, isolate the trust boundary that failed, implement a server-side mitigation, and add targeted logging and regression tests to verify the fix and detect recurrence. What anti-cheat signals would you use to detect abnormal player behavior without relying only on client-side checks? I would use server-observed signals such as impossible movement vectors, invalid fire rates, inconsistent inventory changes, abnormal hit accuracy, timing anomalies, and invalid state transitions. Combining several signals into risk scoring reduces false positives and makes detection more resilient than a single client-side check. How would you integrate anti-cheat functionality into an existing Unity project while minimizing gameplay regressions? I would map critical gameplay flows and trust boundaries, introduce validation incrementally behind feature flags, and test changes in controlled environments before broader rollout. I would use telemetry to measure rejection rates and player impact, then tune rules with game designers and backend engineers. How do you balance anti-cheat protection with player privacy and performance on mobile devices? I would prioritize server-side validation and collect only telemetry necessary for security investigations and detection. On the client, I would keep checks lightweight, profile CPU and battery impact, avoid intrusive data collection, and ensure logging follows clear retention and access controls.
