Valve seems to have quietly rolled out a major upgrade to their Anti-Cheat system and it’s apparently wrecking havoc on cheat providers (lemmy.ml)

It can be tested in closed systems but it's not something you can easily define the success rate of because the cheats are constantly evolving and game updates close or introduce vulnerabilities.

There is still value of having an anti-cheat even if it does not have a high chance of catching cheaters, so long as it keeps false positives to a minimum.
