Lottery & Gaming Penetration Testing
Protect Platforms, Players, and Trust
The gaming industry, from physical casinos to online lottery platforms, mobile betting apps, and loyalty programs, is a constant target for cybercriminals. Attackers exploit every angle: payment systems, player accounts, and backend integrations. A single breach can expose sensitive data, disrupt operations, and erode player trust.
Packetlabs delivers specialized penetration testing for gaming and lottery operators to uncover hidden vulnerabilities across networks, applications, and infrastructure. By simulating real-world attack paths, we help organizations prevent data breaches, maintain compliance, and safeguard reputation in an increasingly high-stakes environment.
With tailored penetration testing, we help gaming and lottery operators:
1) Protect player data and payment systems against fraud, credential theft, and ransomware 2) Secure loyalty programs and player accounts from targeted attacks and abuse 3) Ensure operational continuity across physical casinos and online platforms 4) Validate controls against real-world threats with CREST-accredited, manual-first testing 5) Prove resilience to regulators, partners, and stakeholders through transparent reporting and remediation guidance. PCI DSS v4.0, PCI DSS 11.3, SOC 2, ISO/IEC 27001, NIST SP 800-115
