INTRALOT EXPANDS WLA SCS & ISO 27001 CERTIFICATION

ALOT has been awarded the World Lottery Association Security Control Standard (WLA SCS:2012) and ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certification for its operations in the United States of America, Italy, Peru and Morocco, in line with the Group strategy to operate worldwide under the highest security standards.

More precisely, the Group US subsidiary, INTRALOT Inc., has been certified for its Central Monitoring and Accounting System that operates in Georgia as well as for its overall operation in Ohio. These new certifications extend the existing certification of INTRALOT Inc.

The new certifications in the USA, Italy, Peru and Morocco cover all corporate functions of each operation, formalizing the existing management systems that control the integrity of the games and corporate conduct as a whole and are complementary to the WLA SCS, ISO 27001, ISO 20000 and ISO 9001 certificates of INTRALOT Headquarters in Athens, Greece.

“Integrity and trust are the key elements of our successful lottery business operation. The new awarded certifications demonstrate our Group’s commitment and investment in security control practices in order to achieve and sustain public confidence in our operations”, stated INTRALOT’s Group COO Mr. Nikos Nikolakopoulos. “As an industry leader, we seek to build long term relationships with our customers and form trusted partnerships where our high quality products and services add value, ensure operational excellence, maintain leading position and deliver sustainable growth.”

Mr. Jean Jorgensen, WLA Executive Director, added: “Once again, I would like to congratulate INTRALOT for adding four more sites to the scope of their WLA-SCS certification. The new sites include INTRALOT de Peru from South America; INTRALOT Maroc from Africa; INTRALOT Italia S.p.A. from Europe; and INTRALOT in Ohio from North America. INTRALOT's ongoing program of certifying to the WLA-SCS demonstrates INTRALOT's profound commitment to keeping security a number one priority for the lotteries of the world lottery community."

The certifications cover the complete life cycle of system and service design, development, implementation, support and operation in a particular country. The audits were performed by TUV Nord, one of the world’s largest certification bodies which performed on-site inspections, examining the local operations.
