Valorant's anti-cheat system, Vanguard, has been successful in reducing cheating in PC gaming. According to Phillip Koskinas, director of anti-cheat on Valorant, the system is winning the war against PC gaming cheaters. Vanguard uses a kernel-level system and has been praised by researchers at the University of Birmingham for its effectiveness.

However, some experts warn that AI-powered cheating could become a significant issue in the future. Microsoft's efforts to secure Windows 11 features are expected to help Valorant further, but there are concerns about Linux support.
