Riot Vanguard
Vanguard is a kernel-mode anti-cheat that loads at Windows boot through the vgc.exe service and the vgk.sys driver. Because the driver is active before any user-space software, the fingerprint snapshot is taken in a state where most runtime tampering tools cannot intervene. Riot has stated publicly that hardware bans are permanent, machine-bound and not subject to expiration.
