Compliance Updates
Iforium awarded ISO/IEC 27001 certification
Industry’s leading aggregator awarded gold standard for data protection and system security
Iforium, the global casino aggregation platform provider, has further established its tier one credentials following ISO IEC 27001 certification for the operations behind its award-winning Gameflex platform.
To receive its certification, Iforium’s internal processes were rigorously tested against the Standard’s strict assessment criteria, ensuring it met the 114 controls and 7 clauses required over a nine-month period.
With a series of internal audits undertaken prior to the certification process, the standard ensures that Iforium’s senior management, as well as all its operations and controls, are fully compliant with the data protection practices and procedures set by the International Organisation for Standardisation and the International Electrotechnical Commission.
As a result, Iforium can demonstrate to its tier one operator partners that its global operations are undertaken with the highest certification available for data protection and system security.
The aggregator will also be able to significantly expand the reach of its Gameflex platform across an even greater range of markets, with regulators such as the Swiss Federal Gaming Board requiring full ISO 27001 compliance prior to entry.
Commenting on its certification, Andrew Cairns, COO at Iforium said:
“We are delighted to be awarded ISO 27001 certification for the operations behind the industry’s largest and most popular aggregation platform. We see this as the perfect endorsement to Iforium’s commitment to the security of its systems and client data reflecting the hard work and dedication by the entire Iforium team in this area.
“By committing ourselves to external audits of both our systems and processes, we are able to highlight our credentials as a forward-thinking supplier, as well as setting the highest standards of compliance we believe all aggregators should adhere to.”
Already the recipient of multiple industry awards, Iforium’s Gameflex combines over 10,000 games from more than 100 gaming vendors and is available to multi-channel operators and suppliers via a single API integration.
Powered by cutting-edge data, operators are also able to create real-time tournaments, missions, achievements and insights from any game and any game provider.
The ISO/IEC 27001 certification follows an outstanding year for the industry’s leading aggregator, which saw it expand its regulated European presence, entering the Latam and US markets for the first time following Gameflex platform integration agreements with tier one operators in both Mexico and New Jersey.
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.”
