Valorant's anti-cheat starts upon computer boot and runs all the time, even when you don't play the game

Oh, rootkit in a game! So much fun!
Let's think about it a little. How to bypass this thing?
Run the rootkit in a VM.
Create a userspace driver that passes game data to the said VM.
Load cheats on host.
...
Profit!

Client detects end user running VM module, verifys with Microsoft. Microsoft confirms. Client Mac bans user, anti-cheat software turns into crypto miner. Client profit. User cry :messenger_loudly_crying:

If you can find that VM is running from inside the VM - it worth shit.
Maybe MSFT VMs worth shit. Dunno.
