Key take aways from GGPoker’s new security feature roll out.

GGPoker is introducing four optional tools: Screen Guard, Connection Monitor, Allowed Processes and DNS Check, designed to protect private information and detect suspicious connections or network activity.

Enhanced cheating detection: New Win-Rate Anomaly Detection (WAD) technology analyses decisions to identify players making unusually accurate plays that could indicate access to opponents’ hole cards.

Ban on third-party poker software: All third-party poker software and automation tools are prohibited, including PokerTracker 4, Hold’em Manager 3, Hand2Note and Jurojin. Players must close these applications before launching GGPoker.

End of support for older operating systems: Support for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1, and macOS 11 (Big Sur) or earlier, will end in 2027. Players are advised to upgrade to at least Windows 10 or macOS

Action following the recent security incident: GGPoker says it has traced the funds involved, shared cryptocurrency wallet details with Coinbase and relevant industry networks, and reported the matter to law enforcement. It also recommends players enable two-factor authentication, passkeys and Fund Password protection.

The new security measures come after the Jurojin superuser scandal rocked the poker community 2 weeks ago.
