    I have a friend in cyber Sec that’s working for a different casino brand. They’re all on super high alert this morning. There’s so much of the same software across brands that they’re all scared as shit.

      They mostly all use really cheap network. Servers, and software. Some of the cheapest run companies for IT are casinos.

      I don’t work in one, but I have interviewed dozens of people who have.

        They took a gamble on their cybersecurity…

        Yeah that seems to be the same I’m hearing. They’re on high alert and are stepping up their monitoring and stuff. It’s ironic that they’re so intense on physical security and stuff, but their cyber stuff is so outdated.
