1. Encryption and link security
The basic standard is the use of SSL/TLS encryption. All data between the player and the server is transmitted in encrypted form, excluding the possibility of interception. Providers embed:
- 256-bit SSL encryption;
- HTTPS protocols for browser games;
- encryption of databases with personal data.
2. Compliance with international standards
To operate in regulated markets, providers are required to meet the requirements of:
- GDPR (EU) - protection of personal data and the right to delete them;
- ISO/IEC 27001 - information security standards;
- PCI DSS - payment card processing requirements;
- AML/KYC - anti-money laundering and player identity verification.
3. KYC and anti-fraud tools
Providers are implementing identity verification systems to protect both casinos and players:
- Automatic document recognition
- biometric authentication;
- Monitoring suspicious transactions
- behavioral analysis to identify bots or scammers.
These mechanisms not only prevent financial crimes, but also protect data from use by third parties.
4. Data separation and protection
Modern platforms use the data segmentation principle:
- game data (balance, betting history) is stored separately from personal data;
- payment data is transferred only to certified payment processors;
- access to information is limited by role-based access.
5. Monitoring and auditing
Providers are required to regularly undergo inspections of independent organizations:
- eCOGRA, GLI, iTech Labs are testing not only RNG, but also security systems;
- regulators (MGA, UKGC) require regular audits;
- uses SIEM systems to detect attacks in real time.
6. Provider Liability
It is important to understand: the casino is legally responsible to the player, but it is the software provider that provides the technical level of protection. It depends on his decisions:
- whether data theft will be possible;
- how quickly unauthorized access is detected;
- how personal data is stored and processed.
Result
Providers play a key role in protecting player data. Their responsibility is to encrypt, certify, implement KYC and anti-fraud systems, and continuously audit security. The more reliable the provider, the higher the guarantee that the players' data will remain protected, and the casino will meet international requirements.
