Casino gaming company Bragg says hackers accessed ‘internal computer environment’

One of the leading casino game producers said hackers breached their systems and accessed internal environments during an incident discovered on Saturday morning. 

Bragg Gaming Group said on Monday that it “believes that the data breach was limited to Bragg’s internal computer environment” based on its preliminary investigation.

“At the present time, there is no indication that any personal information was affected,” the company said. “Additionally, the breach has had no impact on the ability of the Company to continue its operations, nor has it been restricted from accessing any data that has been subject to the breach.”

The company did not respond to a request for additional comment.

In its statement, Bragg said it has hired cybersecurity experts to deal with the incident.

Bragg Gaming Group is a popular tech producer that creates gambling content for digital and real life casinos. The company uses in-house brands like Wild Streak Gaming and others to sell games to casino giants like Caesars Entertainment as well as gambling platforms like Fanduel and BetMGM.  

Days before the incident, the company reported more than $30 million in revenue for the second quarter.

Bragg has become the latest gaming company to face a breach in recent months after incidents impacting Australia’s Ainsworth Game Technology and International Game Technology — which reported significant disruptions in November.

Ohio’s state lottery was impacted by a ransomware incident last year and the disruption of MGM Casino last fall caused more than $100 million in damages. Yesterday, the Justice Department unsealed charges against several of the hackers involved in the incident.
