OWASP GameSec Framework Project

Some of the most prolific apps these days are video games. They are sponsored, scrutinized, monetized, and celebrated, just like many sports. They handle clients, servers, monetary transfers, social interactions, etc, with every bit the need of security that most internet hosted apps have (if not more in some cases). This NEW OWASP project will help classify the diverse types of game hacks that exist for some of the worlds biggest games. We'll use history as an example, and break down the flaws as much as possible, creating a do-not-do list of flaws new game companies can reference when creating new games.
