MODERATORS
Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) is available to all developers using the Steam Platform, but it's not particularly effective unless you apply personal tweaks or use it in conjunction with another anticheat system (such as sigh kernel level anticheats).
Many of the big PVP games on Steam employ this hybrid system, with some cheaters getting VAC'd and others receiving "Game bans" because of the different tools employed.
