Penetration testing for igaming, casino & gambling

Heading photo

Online casinos, gambling platforms and betting shops are increasingly moving online, creating new opportunities for players and operators. With the development of digital technologies and increased access to the internet, more and more people prefer to participate in online gambling and betting. This is due to advantages such as convenience, universal and round the clock accessibility, and a wide range of games and bets.

The growing popularity of online gambling has led to a significant increase in the number of fans of this type of entertainment. Online casino operators are constantly developing new games, offering bonuses and promotions to attract and retain players. They also work to improve the user experience by providing high-quality graphics and sound, as well as an intuitive interface.
However, as the popularity of online casinos grows, so do the security requirements. Consumers of services, or visitors to online casinos, have high expectations regarding the protection of their money and personal data. They want to be sure that their financial transactions are protected and that their personal information is not disclosed to third parties without their consent.
To meet these needs, online casino operators are implementing advanced data protection technologies, such as encryption, multi-level authentication systems, and regular security checks. They also cooperate with regulators to ensure compliance with the law and ensure game fairness. Responsible gambling is also important, so many platforms offer tools to monitor gambling activity to prevent addiction and ensure a healthy attitude to gambling.
Thus, the transition of gambling to the online space brings significant benefits for both players and operators. However, it is important to ensure a high level of security to maintain user trust.
Gambling experts claim that this industry is worth about $100 billion. Such a huge sum naturally attracts the attention of hacker groups, and online casinos have become an attractive target for cybercriminals. Hackers use a variety of attack methods, the most common of which are phishing attacks, malware distribution and searching for vulnerabilities in security systems.
Phishing attacks involve attackers creating fake websites or sending out emails that look like official messages from casinos or banks. This allows them to access player accounts and steal their financial and personal data.

Malware distribution may include viruses, trojans and other malicious software that infiltrate user computers or casino servers. Such software can collect confidential information, steal money, or even completely paralyse a platform.

Searching for security vulnerabilities allows hackers to penetrate sensitive areas and gain access to databases, financial transactions, and other critical information. Every year, cybercriminals improve their skills and invent new types of attacks, making it even more difficult to fight them.

Accordingly, online casinos are forced to constantly improve their security measures. They have implement multi-level security systems, use modern data encryption methods, and conduct regular audits of their systems to identify and eliminate potential vulnerabilities.

If hackers gained access to an online platform that accepts payments or stores data, the consequences would be catastrophic. Customers could lose money, and an iGaming platform, casino, or betting shop would suffer significant reputational damage and lose the loyalty of their users.
To ensure the security of your gaming platform or betting shop, you need to conduct regular penetration testing (pentest). For this type of business, cybersecurity is becoming a priority, as only a comprehensive approach to protection can guarantee the security of financial transactions and data confidentiality.

Why a penetration test? Because a pentest is a simulation of a realistic hacker attack. A pentest provides a very reliable indication of the losses an online casino, computer game, or online lottery can expect in the event of a successful hacker attack.

Knowing all the weak points, you can quickly strengthen your cyber defences. Penetration testing is an essential tool for assessing the level of information security. It helps to identify vulnerabilities and risks in an entity’s infrastructure, which allows you to take prompt action to eliminate them.

Please note that the sooner you decide to purchase penetration testing services, the better. We don’t know when a cyberattack on your business might happen – it could be happening right now – so don’t wait to carry out penetration testing.
