Global online casino operator SlotsMillion has further enhanced its industry-leading Responsible Gambling strategy with the launch of a new Player Protection team as it celebrates its most transformative and significant year to date.

During 2020-2021, SlotsMillion has completed a number of substantial projects while also continuing to build its customer base by providing games and fun with a focus on security and responsible gambling.

The award-winning operator split the B2C and B2B entities of the group, carried out a complete rebranding and launched an entirely new user interface in all its operating markets.

SlotsMillion also went live in Sweden, while significantly changing its offering to the UK market through a new welcome offer that has been well received by players. During the year, it continued its ambitious rollout of new content having added more than 1,000 new games.

It has now reaffirmed its commitment to social responsibility through the creation of its Player Protection team, which is a joint Anti-Money Laundering and Responsible Gambling function supported by a refined alert system. Through specialist focus, the division will further mitigate the risks connected to excessive spend and criminal spend, and ensure the goals of Responsible Gambling and keeping crime out of gambling remains at the core of our organisation. Further to this, the team coaches and trains the other operational departments, such as customer service, to make sure that RG is integrated into everyday customer interactions and customer facing teams remain alert to suspicious activity.

“The past year has been enormously ambitious and significant for SlotsMillion,” said Charles Gross, SlotsMillion’s CEO

“We have redefined our product, revamped our brand, and completely rethought the way we operate in an increasingly saturated market.

“It could even be said that it has been one of our most important periods in terms of reshaping our modus operandi, our objectives and paving the way to an entirely new phase marked by innovative projects and the recruitment of new talent to join our team in order to achieve our many goals.”

While it has been a year of change for SlotsMillion, which is licensed in Malta, the UK and Sweden, the group has sought to be led in its transformation by the strengths that have brought it such success since its launch.

At the heart of this is its pioneering RG strategy, and following the launch of the Player Protection team it now looks forward to further RG enhancements in the coming year as well as the introduction of the new SlotsMillion app.

“Responsible Gambling has been at the core of what we do and offer, even before the industry-wide changes that have come into play in the past years,” added Gross. “Despite RG always being at the core of our business, one of the main objectives this past year has been to refine and perfect our approach to Responsible Gambling.

“Even though we carried out a rebranding process, our core values have remained intact: to offer a remarkable online casino experience to players marked by the variety and quality of choice, and a customer-first approach in everything we do.

“We are proud to see that the hard work put into the last year has paved the way for a very promising future for the brand in which our capacity for innovation will continue shining while we keep working toward offering our players the best possible gaming experience.”

Galaxsys, the award-winning games developer, is proud to announce the launch of Olympian Legends, a new slot game that brings the power and majesty of ancient mythology to life.

More than just a tribute to ancient mythology, Olympian Legends combines breathtaking visuals, innovative features, and dynamic gameplay, promising players an unforgettable journey through the myths of Olympus. As players progress and reveal mythic features, they face the power of ancient gods. With cascading symbols and exciting bonuses, the game delivers a dynamic adventure that’s truly worth exploring.

This marks the third slot title that Galaxsys has announced over the last two months, following the launches of Funny Faces: Hoglet-Moglet and El Dorado.

What Makes Olympian Legends Special
Olympian Legends stands out by blending rich narrative elements with innovative slot mechanics. The progress bar on the right side of the grid consists of five elements. Each time a winning combination is formed, the progress bar fills from bottom to top, triggering a mythical feature when an element is completed. Additionally, the Buy Bonus option allows players to take fate into their own hands, enabling them to access the bonus game at any time they choose.

Dynamic animations and sound design ensure every encounter with Zeus, Poseidon, and more characters feels like stepping into an epic saga rather than playing a traditional slot.

Vigen Safaryan, CPO at Galaxsys, commented: “Olympian Legends combines strong gameplay mechanics with a detailed and dynamic theme. Our goal was to deliver a slot that feels rewarding to play while offering players a more refined experience through mythology. We paid special attention to balancing the game’s features to ensure that the experience feels dynamic, without overwhelming the player. From the visuals and animations to the way the bonuses unfold, every element was designed to create a journey that feels both entertaining and authentic.”

Olympian Legends is now live and available for Galaxsys’ global network of partners.

ESET Research analyzes tools from the China-aligned TheWizards group, with targets across Asia and the Middle East

ESET researchers have analyzed Spellbinder, a lateral movement tool used to perform adversary-in-the-middle attacks by the China-aligned threat actor TheWizards. Spellbinder enables adversary-in-the-middle attacks through IPv6 stateless address autoconfiguration spoofing, which allows the attackers to redirect the update protocols of legitimate Chinese software to malicious servers. Then the legitimate software is tricked into downloading and executing the malicious components that launch the backdoor WizardNet.

TheWizards has been constantly active since at least 2022 until the present and, according to ESET telemetry, targets individuals, gambling companies, and unknown entities in the Philippines, Cambodia, the United Arab Emirates, mainland China, and Hong Kong.

“We initially discovered and analyzed this tool in 2022, and observed a new version with a few changes that was deployed to compromised machines in 2023 and 2024,” says ESET researcher Facundo Muñoz, who analyzed Spellbinder and WizardNet. “Our research led us to discover a tool used by the attackers that is designed to perform adversary-in-the-middle attacks using IPv6 SLAAC spoofing to intercept and reply to packets in a network, allowing the attackers to redirect traffic and serve malicious updates to legitimate Chinese software,” explains Muñoz.

The final payload in the attack is a backdoor that we named WizardNet – a modular implant that connects to a remote controller to receive and execute .NET modules on the compromised machine. ESET researchers have focused on one of the latest cases, in 2024, in which the update of Tencent QQ software was hijacked. The malicious server that issues the update instructions is still active. This variant of WizardNet supports five commands, three of which allow it to execute .NET modules in memory, thus extending its functionality on the compromised system.

TheWizards and the Chinese company Dianke Network Security Technology (also known as UPSEC) – supplier of the DarkNights backdoor (also known as DarkNimbus), appear to be linked. According to NCSC UK, this malicious backdoor also has Tibetan and Uyghur communities among its primary targets. While TheWizards uses a different backdoor – the WizardNet, the hijacking server is configured to serve DarkNights to updating applications running on Android devices.
