Wazdan awarded ISO/IEC 27001 Certificate
Wazdan announces that on the 22nd of July the company received the ISO/IEC 27001 certification.
ISO/IEC 27001 is the internationally recognized standard for Risk Management and Information Security, awarded only to the elite group of companies that meet strict requirements imposed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).
The certification process involves testing the security in important areas, including Development and provision of Gaming Platform and Casino Games or Designing and production of game mathematics, among others.
Wazdan is a well-acclaimed company with a true passion for games, and more than 10 years of experience in the iGaming industry, with a portfolio of over 120 games that along with the ISO certificate prove wholehearted dedication to customers. These qualities are what give the company their drive and opportunity for development and growth to be experienced in the near future.
This certificate marks an important milestone for the company and allows Wazdan to continue its further expansion onto the next regulated markets. And with the launch of several new and innovative games this year, Wazdan’s team is well prepared to push their success forward and offer well-designed products to a growing number of players and operators alike.
“Our talented team is created by the people who are truly passionate about games, and because of that, we’re holding ourselves to high standards. The elite international ISO certificate proves the outstanding quality of our processes, products and services that will help us continue the dynamic growth we’ve experienced over the last several years,” says Michał Imiołek, CEO of Wazdan.
eCOGRA, a leading international authority in Testing, Inspection and Certification services for the iGaming industry, has secured new regulatory approvals across three key jurisdictions: Arizona, Indiana and Panama. With these developments, eCOGRA strengthens its position in the U.S. and Latin American markets, offering excellence in compliance through their Quality, Speed, and Service promise.
This strategic expansion allows eCOGRA to conduct independent compliance audits and certification services in each region, addressing the growing demand for rigorous regulatory oversight in the fast-evolving global iGaming industry.
Securing approval in Arizona, where eCOGRA has now been licensed as an Event Wagering Ancillary Supplier, enables the International Testing Laboratory (ITL) to audit event wagering licensees in line with Arizona’s expanding regulatory landscape. Indiana, which introduced online sports betting in September 2019, has authorised eCOGRA to perform regulatory compliance audits, providing licensed operators with crucial assurance in meeting the state’s high standards.
In Panama, the Board of Gaming Control officially recognised eCOGRA as an Authorised Entity for Compliance Certification, specifically for slot machines and gaming software. This endorsement reinforces eCOGRA’s role as a trusted partner for operators seeking to meet stringent regulatory requirements in Latin America’s emerging iGaming sector.
“Our recent approvals in Indiana, Arizona, and Panama underline our dedication to continually expand our offering, to support our growing portfolio of clients with their global growth plans. We are committed to ensuring that we bring the same quality, speed and service that marks us out to both our clients and regulators in these dynamic markets,” said Will Shuckburgh, Group CEO of eCOGRA.
Bradley Khoury, Chief Technology Officer at eCOGRA, said: “Securing licensure as an Event Wagering Ancillary Supplier in Arizona and an Authorised Entity in Panama underscores our dedication to supporting responsible and sustainable iGaming operations. We are committed to driving trust and accountability within the industry by providing compliance solutions that uphold the highest standards.”
The Danish Gambling Authority has officially opened applications for land-based bingo licences under the country’s new regulatory framework.
The licences will be valid from 1 January 2025 for applicants who meet the required conditions and submit complete applications by 10 December 2024.
This development provides opportunities for operators to offer land-based bingo within a regulated environment.
To assist prospective applicants, the Danish Gambling Authority has created a dedicated “Land-Based Bingo” webpage. Here, operators can access application materials, guidelines and instructions to ensure submissions are completed accurately.
Operators seeking a licence valid from 1 January 2025 must submit their applications by the 10 December deadline. Applications that meet all requirements will be processed in time for the start date.
In cases where additional information or conditions are needed, the authority may issue licences with specific stipulations, granting operators additional time to address outstanding issues.
To support industry stakeholders, the Danish Gambling Authority will host an information meeting about the new land-based bingo rules on 5 December 2024. The session will take place at Englandsgade 25, Odense, and interested parties are encouraged to register by 29 November 2024.
