LAS VEGAS, NV – Konami Gaming has earned ISO 27001 certification for the information security management system (ISMS) supporting its Synkros® casino management system and Konami Online Interactive iGaming offering.
The certification was performed by Schellman & Company, an ANAB- and UKAS-accredited certification body based in the U.S. ISO 27001 is an internationally recognized standard for information security management systems, establishing requirements for managing information security risks and implementing controls to protect information assets.
“Compliance before commerce has been Konami’s long-held standard across the organization, and our work to clearly structure our ISMS and achieve ISO 27001 certification demonstrates a continued commitment towards this approach to our customers, partners, and employees,” said Brian Alu, Vice President, Information Technology at Konami Gaming.
Konami underwent a comprehensive audit as part of the certification process, which included planning, research, documentation and collaboration across departments including human resources, systems, marketing, technical compliance, security, IT and iGaming.
“Independent certification of Synkros under ISO 27001 is part of Konami’s enduring commitment to data privacy and security,” said Tom Soukup, Senior Vice President & Chief Systems Product Officer. “Our research and development, quality assurance, and customer support departments take great effort in providing and supporting our award-winning Synkros casino properties with the highest level of data privacy and security, using acclaimed best practices.”
“For more than a decade, Konami’s iGaming team has operated with an emphasis on trust, security, and player protection,” said Eduardo Aching, Vice President of iGaming & International Gaming Operations. “Official ISO 27001 Certification in the development, deployment, and operation of Konami Online Interactive is the latest milestone in a long history of responsible product and organizational integrity at Konami.”
Konami Gaming’s ISO 27001 certification is valid for three years, with annual surveillance reviews beginning in 2027.
