Business Models and Platform Launches
We analyze the White Label model in iGaming: what the brand owner gets out of the box, how the revenue is divided, what risks and responsibilities remain, what the stack consists of (payments, games, anti-fraud, KYC/AML, bonuses), how much the launch takes and what to look at in the contract.
Platform Integrations and Architecture
It is clear about the API in iGaming: roles and types of interfaces (REST, WebSocket, gRPC, webhooks), security (OAuth2/JWT, mTLS, signatures), idempotency and versions, integration with games, payments, KYC/AML, bonuses and BI. Checklists, examples of endpoints and best practices for a reliable platform.
Mobile Strategy and Product
The main drivers of "mobile-first" in iGaming: smartphones, 5G and the cloud, PWA/applications, fast local payments, biometrics, live games on the go, personalization and A/B tests. Pros, risks, licensing requirements and a checklist for a quality mobile product.
Mobile Architecture and Product
What mobile casino applications consist of: architecture (native/hybrid/PWA), game modules and wallet, payments and KYC, security, anti-fraud, telemetry and A/B tests, store policies and compliance, offline cache and performance. Quality checklists and typical release cycle.
Web Gaming Technology and Rendering
An understandable explanation of how HTML5 slots work: stack (HTML5/Canvas/WebGL/Audio), adaptive UI, mobile performance, security and compliance. Comparison with Flash, reasons for the transition of the industry, migration of old games and a checklist of the quality of a modern web slot.
Product Operation and Lifecycle
Updates are not "cosmetics," but security, stability, speed and license compliance. We analyze: what exactly the updates give, how they affect RTP metrics of perception, payments and KYC, why without them the risks of fraud and deviations in sectors grow, as well as how to build a safe release cycle (canary, feature flags, kickbacks).
Data security and privacy
The full picture of data security in iGaming: from PII classification and payment tokenization to encryption, KMS/HSM, Zero Trust, DLP/SIEM, compliance (GDPR/PCI DSS), integrity logs and incident response plan. Checklists, architectural patterns, and typical errors.
Web platform security and compliance
Why do online casinos need HTTPS: payment protection and KYC, browser and store trust, license compliance and PCI DSS/GDPR. We analyze the types of certificates, TLS 1. 3, HSTS/OCSP stapling, HTTP/2/3, cipher selection, mixed content, pinning and operational implementation checklist.
Cryptography and data protection
Why end-to-end encryption in iGaming: PII and payment protection, GDPR/PCI DSS compliance, leak damage reduction, secure backups and logs, KMS/HSM and key rotation, field and banner encryption, performance and common errors. Implementation checklist and architectural patterns.
Network threats and resilience
Practical defense against L3/L4/L7-DDoS: Anycast/CDN and scrubbing, WAF/bot management, rate-limit and cache strategies, payment/CUS and live content protection, auto-scaling and asset-asset regions, SIEM/NetFlow, IR plans and legal steps. Checklists and architectural patterns for platforms, game providers and affiliate traffic.
Customer identification and anti-money laundering
Step by step about digital KYC/AML: collection and validation of documents, liveness biometrics, sanctions/PEP checks, risk scoring, transaction monitoring and STR/SAR reports. API and webhooks integrations, privacy (GDPR), fraud fighting, quality metrics, and common bugs.
Transaction monitoring and behavioral risk
Step-by-step AML/fraud system: what data is collected, what rules and models are applied (velocity, behavioral scoring, graph analysis), how alerts and case management work, when STR/SAR is submitted, and how to reduce false positives. Case studies, quality metrics, and checklists.
AI against fraud and laundering
How artificial intelligence helps online casinos reduce fraud and AML risks: behavioral scoring, graph analytics, anomalies and NLP, real-time scoring of payments and KYC, combating multi-accounting and bonus abuse, A/B effect assessment, explainability and compliance. Implementation checklist and frequent errors.
Operational maturity and quality control
A semi-annual audit of an online platform is not a bureaucracy, but a way to catch vulnerabilities, license mismatches and business degradation points in advance. What to check (security, payments, KYC/AML, RNG/RTP, RG, performance, costs, data), how to conduct (plan, artifacts, metrics), what to include in the report and how to turn conclusions into a roadmap.
Information Security and Compliance
What ISO/IEC 27001 gives for online casinos and iGaming platforms: managed security (ISMS), reducing regulatory and financial risks, partner and player confidence, competitive tenders. We analyze: scope, risk-based approach, SoA, Annex A (v 2022), audit and certificate maintenance, mapping with GDPR/PCI DSS and implementation checklist.
