Russian hackers offer users free access to Ubisoft games -

Gameranx reported that an anonymous group of Russian hackers have managed to develop a software that gives free access to some of the games Ubisoft portfolio. The hack works by tricking the uPlay security system developer to believe that a user already has possession of a game, making it available for download for free illegally.

The hack allowed gambling addicts wanting to download copies of Ubisoft currently unreleased track, Far Cry 3: dragon's blood , which is supposed to be hitting the shelves in early May . The code of circumnavigation pirates digital rights management protocol uPlay, which means that not only the entire 3051mb game available for free, but it could also be played offline and off radar.

In the last 24 hours Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon was found on numerous torrent sites and video; Ubisoft workers eagerly searching the net to remove all download links and downloaded images of their first-person shooter lighthouse. However, given that the new hack was brought to public attention by Ubisoft mass efforts in removing glimpses of the game, it raises the question of whether these frequent games "leaks" have in fact become a new and secret form of marketing.

Ubisoft spokesman issued a statement in an attempt to reassure customers: "We are aware of the problem and are working to quickly resolve any personal information has been compromised.". However, the fact of the matter is that, on this occasion, the pirates are after sensitive information. in fact, the situation shows that Ubisoft is apparently no measures in place to stop them if they were.

Whether these pirates are part of an open -source revolution or sell access to their personal profit, Ubisoft has been appealing directly to users because it is apparently down to customers (with little loyalty waning) to ignore the lure of downloading games illegally.

it seems that even giants game that specialize in programming and coding can escape the threat of pirates, but a VPN service can thwart at least some of the attacks that individual computer users may face; VPN may add an additional layer of security to your Internet connection, making you feel as insecure when surfing the Internet.
