Vikings Casino Group Should Shut Down Casino Due to Cyber Attack

Viking Casino Group, a victim of cyberattacks after April 19, was able to reopen seven casinos on April 27.

According to Luc Le Borgne, the group's general manager, the casino group cannot operate at full capacity. The eighth facility will also resume service on April 28, at 80% capacity. The Vikings casino hopes the reopening of the last three casinos will take place in the next few days, no later than a week, from May 9-12.

The attack was detected on April 19 by an IT service using a surveillance console. Information systems (computer networks and applications) were shut down to protect the data. An investigation is still underway to determine the impact of the attack, but at this stage, the theft of data was not confirmed by the investigation. The group filed a complaint with the authorities and gave advance notice to the National Information System Security Agency (ANSSI) and the Computer Freedom Commission (CNIL).

Due to a computer problem, not only could the players at the casino's gates be identified, but also the payment of the prize money. Restaurants were affected, and all restaurants located in the game rooms were closed. Other restaurants remained open, but accepted payments only by check and cash while the bank card terminal was not working.

The operator said: "While the meeting was held on April 25 to check the crisis, Viking Casino is committed to getting back to normal as soon as possible with the help of partners and professional cybersecurity service providers." 에볼루션 바카라사이트
