Steam :: Steamworks Development :: New Tool for Describing Anti-Cheat in Games
A new dedicated field helps developers describe the anti-cheat provider used in a game

Valve's introduced a new feature allowing developers to publicize the use of kernel level anti-cheat in games on the Steam storefront.
I've read a lot of comments over the years from gamers who've been upset to learn an anti-cheat software packaged with Steam games modified the kernel files on their gaming systems. Not only will new games added to the storefront be required to complete this field if their game contains kernel level anti-cheat, but Valve will also be reviewing old games and contacting partners who meet these criteria.
I think this is a positive step towards improving the visibility of these features for gamers!
