Unity Fraud Detection SDK
Device Fingerprinting for Unity Games
The Unity Fraud Detection SDK from IPQS supports developers using the Unity game engine by helping identify and track individual users through device fingerprinting technology. The system generates digital fingerprints using device characteristics collected from individual devices. These device fingerprints provide a way to recognize repeated activity across sessions and user accounts within Unity projects.
The SDK gathers a range of device characteristics such as browser settings, screen resolution, system information, and user agent string. These details form a profile for each type of device, even when users change IP addresses or login credentials.
The SDK supports Unity fraud prevention efforts by linking user activity to a single device through device fingerprints. Developers working with Unity can detect patterns linked to fraudulent activities and take action while maintaining access for legitimate users and maintaining a consistent user experience.
Behavior Monitoring and Risk Detection
Each session is reviewed using data from the device fingerprinting solution. The SDK looks at device characteristics, user agent strings, IP addresses, and behavioral patterns to identify actions that may indicate fraudulent activities.
Some users may rely on automation tools, device spoofing, use of bots, or irregular behavior to bypass controls. The SDK helps identify these actions early to prevent broader issues. Risk scoring evaluates the session based on device fingerprints and user behavior signals. Higher scores indicate a greater chance of malicious activities or other potential threats.
With multiple data points considered together, Unity fraud detection becomes more accurate. This helps reduce false positives and improves the experience for individual users not involved in suspicious activity.
Device Tracking for Repeated Abuse
Digital fingerprints allow developers to detect repeated use of the same individual devices, even if users try to change identifying details. The SDK connects sessions to specific devices, making it easier to find patterns linked to multiple account creation or repeated access attempts.
Device fingerprints help identify behavior tied to the same type of device. This is helpful in Unity fraud prevention, where repeat abuse can affect the fairness of games or promotions.
With more visibility into repeated usage, security teams can focus their attention where it's needed. Legitimate users are not affected by broad restrictions, and actions can be taken based on consistent device-based patterns.
Reviewing Sessions Without Unnecessary Disruption
Each session is reviewed in context. Instead of responding to a single signal, the SDK evaluates user activity alongside device characteristics, user agent strings, and session behavior.
This approach supports fraud detection while reducing disruption for users. If activity appears different but doesn't match known patterns of abuse, the response can be adjusted accordingly.
Security measures can be applied when the risk level is clear, helping protect systems from malicious activities and potential threats. This keeps regular activity from being interrupted while addressing high-risk behavior.

Device Fingerprinting Across Platforms
The SDK supports both desktop and mobile device fingerprinting. Whether users access a game through a browser or a mobile app, the system consistently collects device fingerprints and related data.
Mobile device fingerprinting captures activity on Android and iOS devices in the same way as desktop systems. This makes it possible to recognize repeated actions from the same device across multiple access points.
Tracking device fingerprints across environments helps detect unusual activity, such as users switching between devices to avoid detection. This information supports Unity fraud prevention by showing how users interact with systems across platforms.
Risk Scoring and Session Insights
Risk scoring is applied during each session based on behavioral patterns, device characteristics, device fingerprints, and network details. Sessions with known risk patterns or repeated suspicious behavior receive higher scores.
Digital fingerprints that have appeared in past high-risk sessions may trigger stronger reviews or restrictions. This helps developers respond more effectively to activity that may pose potential threats or involve fraudulent activities.
Sessions with lower risk can continue without interruption. This approach helps maintain a better user experience for legitimate users while still identifying threats that need action.
Maintaining Access While Responding to Risk
Tracking activity by device fingerprints allows Unity developers to take specific actions against repeated abuse without blocking everyone's access. Security teams can apply controls based on actual behavior, rather than broad assumptions.
The SDK helps identify activity tied to automation tools, repeated login attempts, or unusual session behavior. If malicious activities are detected, controls can be applied to reduce risk and keep systems secure.
The ability to act based on real signals helps protect users and reduce the impact of abuse without making systems harder for regular players to access.
Supporting Security Teams with Data and Tracking
The Unity Fraud Detection SDK provides data that helps developers and security teams make informed decisions. Each session includes device characteristics, behavior signals, and device fingerprints that help teams understand risks and respond effectively.
Device fingerprinting technology supports Unity fraud detection by connecting repeated actions across accounts and sessions. When multiple sessions tie back to the same device or the same type of device, patterns become more clear.
These tools help teams manage activity more effectively, detect threats earlier, and protect both the system and the user experience. Unity fraud prevention becomes more manageable with consistent data and focused tracking.
