Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Inventory Security

The Counter-Strike blog announces that Valve is preparing to introduce a new way to safeguard your inventory items in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive called Trade Hold. This will allow players a 72 hour period to review and approve trades to help stave off any shenanigans with their account in the multiplayer shooter without the use of a mobile authenticator. Here's word:

On December 9th, Steam will be introducing Trade Holds, a new trade feature that will let you ensure that your hard-earned items are protected. If you are unable to protect your account with a Mobile Authenticator, whenever you accept a trade, Steam will hold on to your items for up to three days to give you time to review the transaction.

Everything looking great? If both parties have had the Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator for at least a week, you can speed things up! Simply confirm the trade in the Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator and the trade will complete immediately.

Something not looking right? You can abort all outstanding trades on hold and prevent new unwanted trades from your account for a week.
