Script injection in game clients used to access an online, interactive game may be detected. This detection may be performed on behalf of the entity operating the game in order to reduce cheating by users that relies on client modification through script injection. Detection of script injection may be performed on a recurring basis.

1. A system configured to host an interactive game over a network for a user that accesses the interactive game via a client computing platform, the system comprising:
one or more processors configured by machine-readable instructions to:
host an interactive game by executing an instance of an interactive game, to determine game information from the executed instance, and to cause the game information to be transmitted to a client computing platform associated with a first user participating in the game;provide a scanning script to the client computing platform that causes the client computing platform to scan one or more name scripts associated with a game client executed on the client computing platform and/or information generated by execution of the game client on the client computing platform to detect script injection indicators, wherein providing the scanning script comprises:
determining a session script identification for the scanning script provided for the individual game session;dynamically re-naming the scanning script such that at least a portion of the name of the scanning script for the individual game session includes the session script identification;communicating the session script identification to the client computing platform; andinitiating transmission to the client computing platform of the scanning script named with the session script identification causing the client computing platform to initiate separate scans at intervals in an ongoing manner throughout the individual game session.
