Fast Track, a CRM company that harnesses the power of artificial intelligence and real-time data to deliver unparalleled player engagement to iGaming operators, released a statement on a recent cyberattack. In addition to confirming that the damage was not extensive, the firm said that everyone affected has been informed.
Fast Track Says the Damage Has Been Contained
In its official announcement, Fast Track said that it became aware of an “isolated incident” that occurred at the beginning of the month. According to the company’s announcement, a “highly sophisticated cyberattack” targeted two of the clients operating on the Fast Track Platform.
Commenting on the incident, Fast Track took immediate action to stop the attack once it had been identified. In addition to that, the two affected clients were informed of the incident as soon as possible.
In its latest announcement, Fast Track confirmed that no other clients had been impacted by the cyberattack. The CRM company added that, as a SOC 2-certified business, it continues to maintain the highest standards of data security and operational integrity possible.
Fast Track promised to provide further details at an appropriate time. The company added that people who may have any questions or concerns regarding the cyberattack should contact the company via email.
Gaming Sector Continues to Face Cyberattacks
The gaming industry has continued to experience significant struggles with cybercrime due to its lucrative nature. For the past few years, gaming operators, suppliers, and land-based casinos have continued to experience a variety of issues as malicious parties have continued to bombard the sector with attacks.
Earlier this month, Boyd Gaming came face-to-face with multiple lawsuits due to a cyberattack the company had previously suffered. Angry plaintiffs insisted that the company’s cybersecurity measures were “completely inadequate” and that Boyd was completely unable to protect its employee and customer data.
In late August, meanwhile, a devastating cyberattack hit institutions across Nevada, leading to the temporary shutdown of many state services. Among other things, various state websites, phone lines and services had halted their operations while experts worked on a solution.
Reports at the time insisted that there was no evidence of any personal information leaking.
Earlier this year, international gaming giant Flutter Entertainment reported a data breach affecting its Paddy Power and Betfair brands.
