Denuvo's copy-protection system has been compromised by a hypervisor-based bypass that enables zero-day game releases, prompting parent company Irdeto to promise countermeasures while acknowledging security concerns. The bypass requires users to disable critical Windows security features including Virtualization-Based Security and Driver Signature Enforcement, creating significant malware vulnerabilities despite community-provided scripts to toggle protections on and off.
