Breaking the console: a brief history of video game security

Video game security has always been a moving target, as consoles evolved to full-blown computing platforms locked down with layers of protection — but for every lock ever invented, there has always been someone determined to pick it.

After some time without posting on my blog, I decided to get back to it — and my first post after the break is about the history of video game security! There are also some great stories along the way, like Atari reverse-engineering Nintendo’s lockout system, or how simply changing the name of Link's horse became an attack vector on the Nintendo Wii. I had a lot of fun researching and writing this article, and I learned a lot in the process. I hope you enjoy it too!
