The Customer
Rising Digital Corporation is a gaming company that develops and publishes slot games, table games, game systems and game platforms. Recognized as the leading developer of Asian slot games in the casino gaming industry, Rising Digital provides games to the major gaming manufacturers worldwide.
The Challenge
Rising Digital required a Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) to architect and deploy regulatory compliance programs tailored to the diverse requirements of each interested US state jurisdiction, ensuring consistent, best-in-class security and regulatory standards across all operational states.
The Solution
Rising Digital selected Continent 8, its existing cloud partner and the leading provider of infrastructure and cybersecurity solutions for the iGaming and online sports betting sector, to lead its regulatory cybersecurity strategy.
In collaboration with Continent 8 and its cybersecurity specialist division, C8 Secure, Rising Digital successfully completed a comprehensive suite of regulatory compliance assessments and services, including:
