iGaming Platform Security Controls Comparison
A provider-level comparison of administrative access, encryption, perimeter protection, security testing, vulnerability intake and breach notification. Every conclusion keeps its product, entity, deployment and evidence boundary.
Last updated August 20, 2026
Operational controls, not a security score
The matrix records distinct control conclusions; it does not add them into a feature score or treat certification as a substitute for implementation. Provider order follows the same holistic editorial score used across the site. Unresolved remains unresolved rather than becoming No.
10/18
operator MFA established or partial
9/18
at-rest and in-transit encryption established
9/18
DDoS and WAF controls established or partial
8/18
penetration-testing conclusions established
2/18
full vulnerability-disclosure policies established
11/18
breach-notification processes established
Counts describe the current provider-level conclusions. They do not measure control quality, technical effectiveness, entitlement in a specific contract or readiness for a named jurisdiction.
Provider records
Each value retains its field description and confidence. The provider anchors are stable links to the current score-ordered record set; use the full review for the wider product and ownership context.

02Playtech8.7
Identity, access and accountability
- Operator MFA
Yes
Editorial inference
- RBAC scope
Role-Based Access Control
Editorial inference
IMS is run by around 11,000 admin users across partner companies through 600-plus back-office interfaces, so access is split by role. The exact permission granularity remains partner-gated.
- Administrator audit trail
Yes
Editorial inference
Data and perimeter controls
- Encryption at rest
Yes
Editorial inference
Secure storage and current security controls are established; a product-wide encryption-at-rest specification remains unresolved.

03SOFTSWISS8.3
Identity, access and accountability
- Operator MFA
Unresolved
Mandatory operator-back-office MFA across every module is not established.
- RBAC scope

Verified conclusion
- Administrator audit trail
Unresolved
The back office contains game and player activity history. A dedicated admin action log remains unresolved.
Data and perimeter controls
- Encryption at rest
Unresolved
ISO/IEC 27001 and PCI DSS scope do not establish the at-rest algorithms, key ownership or database-by-database product coverage.
- Encryption in transit
Yes
Verified conclusion
- DDoS protection
Yes
Verified conclusion
Runs traffic through Cloudflare, which cut DDoS hits reaching its systems from several a week to a few a month.
- Web application firewall
Yes
Verified conclusion

Testing, disclosure and notification
- Penetration testing
Unresolved
The ISO-certified management-system scope does not establish a product-specific penetration-test cadence or result.

No
Editorial inference
A live RFC 9116 security.txt provides cert@pragmatic.solutions, a PGP key, canonical URL and expiry through October 2027. A coordinated-disclosure policy, safe-harbour terms and remediation SLA are not established, so the reporting route alone is not a full VDP.

Certification and reliability remain separate records
An ISO, PCI, SOC or gaming-laboratory record has its own assessed subject, version, entity, site and validity boundary. It does not automatically establish every control above. Incident history, backup and recovery, contractual uptime, measured availability, service credits, response terms, RPO and RTO remain in the reliability record.
Security controls FAQ
- Does ISO/IEC 27001 prove that every listed platform control is enabled?
- No. ISO/IEC 27001 applies to a defined information-security management scope. It does not establish that operator MFA, a particular WAF policy, encryption key custody or another control is enabled in every product and deployment. Exact assurance records remain in the certification register.
- Does Unresolved mean that a provider lacks the control?
- No. Unresolved means the current conclusion does not establish the control for the relevant provider, product or deployment. It is not converted into No. Procurement must resolve the architecture, entitlement, owner, evidence and contract boundary.
- Why compare operator MFA but not player two-factor authentication?
- Operator MFA protects privileged administrative access. Player authentication is a different account-security and customer-experience control with market-specific requirements. Combining them would conceal which identity surface is protected.
- Does a Yes for DDoS protection or WAF define service capacity?
- No. It establishes a provider-level capability conclusion only. The named service, protected endpoints, capacity, detection and mitigation thresholds, managed response, exclusions and contract entitlement remain deployment-specific unless the field boundary states otherwise.
- Does no established incident mean that no incident occurred?
- No. Incident and breach history is maintained separately from this control matrix because an absence conclusion is time- and entity-bounded. The uptime, SLA and incident record retains that context without using it as a security-control score.
- Does a disaster-recovery plan establish an uptime SLA or RPO and RTO?
- No. A recovery capability does not establish a contractual availability guarantee, measured uptime, recovery-point objective, recovery-time objective, service credit or termination right. Those terms remain in the uptime, SLA and incident record.
