The Magic Media team was thrilled at the opportunity to work with Faraway in securing Mini Royale: Nations.
Challenge
For a game like Mini Royale: Nations, security is of the utmost importance. The Magic Media team was tasked with securing several aspects of the game, and due to its nature as a community-driven online gaming experience, this presented some unique challenges for our team. Specifically, we needed to focus on user data transactions and the overall gaming experience of Mini Royale: Nations.
Solution
For this project, we leveraged a white-box penetration testing approach where we examined every aspect of the game’s architecture from top to bottom, including first-person shooter gameplay and microtransaction systems.
Our core focus was to scrutinize Mini Royale: Nations’ core components, such as:
– Physics
– Cosmetics
– Shop
– Registration
– Authentication
– Party system
– Clan system
– Battle pass
– Friends
With our security efforts, we made a tangible impact on the game’s robustness and safety so that all players could engage with it knowing that they were in a secure environment.
Results
Both Mini Royale: Nations’ developer Faraway and the wider community felt confident thanks to our security efforts. Since our work on the game began, Faraway has demonstrated a continued commitment to its security which has resonated with its community. Mini Royale: Nations’ community has continued to thrive in a safe and secure environment.
