Yummy Games Quick Launch - Content Security
Yummy Games Quick Launch protects game data with several layers of protection for subscription services and individual game downloads.
Session Based Online Authentication
End user must maintain an Account ID to login to play/run service. Our system verifies the end user has a valid subscription, creates a new unique Session ID, and then game data is decrypted whereby decryption key is always stored on server.
128 Bit Encryption (1st encryption layer)
Application Data is encrypted using a 128-bit encryption algorithm. Yummy encrypts content data (most of the game files) using the encryption algorithm source code. We protect most of the content rather than just selected files.
Wrapping Game Executables (2nd encryption layer)
The game executables are wrapped using GameShield, Yummy’s DRM software. The executable code sections of the game EXE itself are separately encrypted. It has a proprietary mechanism to communicate with the Player system to securely retrieve the necessary wrapper key.
Residence of End User
Yummy works directly with distribution partners to verify account information and restrict usage to end users in specific countries. IP Address blocking can also be implemented to prevent usage by end users in specified countries.
