Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

DiffusionData, formerly known as Push Technology, the pioneer and leader in real-time data streaming and messaging solutions, today announced that it is an ISO 27001:2013 certified provider whose Information Security Management System (ISMS) received third-party accreditation from Certification Europe, an internationally accredited certification body. The certification is part of DiffusionData’s extensive work to ensure very high standards of information security for its global customer base.

ISO 27001 certification is an internationally recognized standard for information security management, and achieving this certification requires a rigorous process of assessing and improving an organization’s security practices.

The handling of information securely has been a key priority for DiffusionData since its inception and over the past year the company has intensified its preparations for ISO 27001 certification, dedicating a team to work on meeting all the relevant requirements. As part of the certification process, DiffusionData’s ISMS was thoroughly evaluated and assessed by a third-party auditor to ensure it met the rigorous requirements of the standard.

Neil Seymour, Head of Engineering at DiffusionData, said: “At DiffusionData we believe that when it comes to information security, certifying to an internationally recognised standard provides us with a tangible competitive edge. Through the expertise of our partner, Ansec, and its experience of the ISO 27001 security framework and principles, we were supported through the development and implementation of an effective Information Security Management System; it was scoped and designed to achieve certification but tailored to meet our specific business needs.”

DiffusionData’s ISMS has been designed and applied to protect the secure development, delivery, maintenance, and support of software and applications, including all managed services associated with the company’s service solutions, while also providing assurances concerning the confidentiality and privacy of corporate and client information.

MGA Issues First ESG Code Approval Seals to Licensees

Reading Time: < 1 minute

 

The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) has awarded its first-ever ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) Code Approval Seals to licensees in the online gaming sector, marking a milestone in the Authority’s commitment to promoting responsible and sustainable industry practices.

This initiative follows the launch of the voluntary ESG Code of Good Practice last year, which invited licensees to submit their ESG disclosure returns. The Code, which covers 19 topics categorised under Environmental, Social and Governance pillars, offers a strategic roadmap for online gaming companies to streamline their reporting efforts.

Following the first annual reporting cycle, 14 gaming operators have been awarded the ESG Code Approval Seal. The Code supports two levels of reporting: Tier 1, which establishes foundational ESG standards, and Tier 2, which represents a more aspirational approach.

Seals are valid for one year, with flexibility for renewal in the subsequent reporting period, allowing operators to advance or adapt their reporting tier year by year.

“We believe this initiative will significantly enhance the industry’s reputation and sustainability credentials,” MGA CEO Charles Mizzi said.

“By integrating ESG considerations into their operations, gaming companies not only contribute to the wellbeing of society and the environment but also strengthen the trust and confidence that consumers, investors, and regulators have in the industry. This initiative sends a clear message: sustainability, in the broadest sense of the word, is integral to the future of the gaming sector.”

The Turkish Football Federation (TFF) has introduced new regulations to crack down on illegal betting advertisements in professional football.

According to the TFF, clubs found violating the new rules will face fines and, in case of repeated offenses, the deduction of points.

Under the updated guidelines, any club in the Turkish Super League involved in unauthorised betting promotions will face a tiered penalty system.

The first violation will result in a fine of 2 million Turkish Liras (around $58,000), and the second offense will incur a 5 million lira fine and a third violation will see the fine increased to 10 million liras. For subsequent breaches, clubs will be fined 10 million liras for each offense, along with a three-point deduction from their league standings.

“It is forbidden to promote or advertise betting organizations not licensed by competent authorities. This includes any media, billboards and other equipment used within stadium,” the TFF stated.

The TFF emphasised that the ban also applies to entities affiliated with these betting organisations, including those involved in promoting and advertising activities in a way that suggests endorsement of illegal betting.

The global scale of the illegal betting market is staggering, with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime estimating its worth at $1.8 trillion. In Türkiye alone, the sector is projected to exceed 100 billion liras, according to the Financial Crimes Investigation Board.
