Enabling filtering alone is really good overall for preventing hackers, but still with Remote Events in some cases, especially with an inventory system, they could figure out how to use the remote events to their advantage still.

I don't have any idea what their 'panel' looks like, whether they can view local scripts etc, but is there some good way to prevent use of remote events except for what I purposely put there?
If I tried some sort of codeword (dare I say the synonym and get banned -_-, ty roblox) that you have to put into the arguments for the remote event to work, they could just view the localscript and get the codeword.
Any ideas?

Firing them isn't the problem
It's making sure they can do what they want to do

Want to buy an item? Make sure they have the money

Your point?

I want to secure the more powerful events so no one can use them.

If you trust the client to tell the server that it now owns an item, you're doing it wrong.

@nQ

You've obviously never made an inventory system.

Ever.

Just make sure you're doing verification on the server and not letting the client tell the server what it owns or if it can buy something or how much money it has.

That's not how my inventory works. Besides, that has NOTHING to do with my question.

If you do server-side verification, then there is no reason to need to prevent them from firing the event.

@Tynezz
Because then a hacker could easily just find the key.
