In December 2014, the Chinese warez group 3DM claimed to have defeated Denuvo and later that month released a software crack for the video game Dragon Age: Inquisition, which uses the Denuvo anti-tamper technology to protect Electronic Arts' Origin Online Access DRM.

Denuvo's marketing director Thomas Goebl stated that some console-only releases get PC releases due to this technology. Games protected by Denuvo require an online re-activation for every hardware change every 24 hours and Denuvo limits activations to four hardware upgrades per 24 hours. To do so would be of no benefit in terms of security or performance.' The company has not revealed how Denuvo Anti-Tamper works. Early reports suggested that Denuvo Anti-Tamper 'continuously encrypts and decrypts itself so that it is impossible to crack.' Denuvo Software Solutions has stated that the technology 'does not continuously encrypt and decrypt any data on storage media.

The first Denuvo-protected game was released in September 2014.
