People know exploiters are a MASSIVE problem for Roblox and there are some secrets, exploiters use to corrupt there data and dupe items.
UTF-8 is a issue that exploiters can use to corrupt their data to send unknown values to a argument and im wondering if using a NumberValue is a safer opinion to stop exploiters than IntValue and is there a way to stop these exploiters from bypassing to corrupt their data. Any Ideas share below. Thanks 
Honestly i never thinked UTF-8 could be exploitable, here is a post that should help you out
Hopefully this works because there is so many black hats and they don’t help and just want money 
More context would be appreciated. What things do you want to protect from intentionally garbled data?
Stopping exploiters from corrupting their data using utf8.
if you wanted better code examples, then I have given in the post hit me up with a message.
Can’t you just use string.byte for each character and check if it’s in the range 0-127?
You can use utf8.len, they fixed the issues it had and now it works fine or use rules
“Rules.ValidUTF8(Value) -Passes if the value is a valid UTF-8 string.”
Can’t you bypass it with other methods though 
Bypassing what exactly, if you mean utf8.len Roblox patched the old ones, unless theres something new?
Yeah, i mean utf8.len because some exploiters say they can bypass utf8 stuff but i’m not sure because i’m not really up-to-date with utf8.
Well as far as I know all the issues have been patched: Data store vulnerabilities · GitHub (comments)
Ok, thanks for this info. It makes me understand more about how to patch theses exploits and for future use.
