Vulnerabilities in gambling websites in past

[Fatunad]

The casino operators sometimes were found to be guilting as well for their poor performances due to lack of maintenance, i know the gamblers have theirs from their end but most casinos had this as fault, spend money when necessary to maintain your gambling website, employ experience operators to handle your services, research and come up with new ideas, technology and model that can make your site outstanding from others, this alone will troop in gamblers because everyone want something new, many gamblers had suffer huge loss on casinos in the past and still counting till present because they eventually failed along the line, we should not create a thing that is not worth lasting, that's why many refers them as scamming sites and of which they were not intended to scam and this is how far vulnerability could go in presenting them with bad reputation.

If you are running a gambling business then it would really be just normal that you would really be particularly going for long term basis or something you do hope for that it could give revenue throughout the years which
means that you would really be putting emphasis when it comes to security but if you are really planning on having low budget or just mediocre then you would really be expecting on not so tight
security which might really be ending up on getting hacked later on.Yes, its important that security on a gambling platform is strengthen because this is where people do usually
built up trust which they do saw a platform hadnt experienced any security issues for a long time and this is something that you should maintain or retain.

Well everything is relative, this is where it is shown that those who have a lot of money have many more options to succeed, that is, with more capital things can be better and greater opportunities can be generated for the business to flow, obviously a normal business ROI would be expected around 3 years or so, but to be honest I don't know what the ROI is for a casino when it is being formed and because of all the operational expenses that are implemented within a casino, including marketing, security payment, devs specialized in different branches of the casino, everything is an expense and it is an enormous expense, casinos are big companies.

Money actually solve the high percentage of the problem here, when a casino is financially bouyant enough to withstand the challenges in maintaining it's website, proper management and administration of issues concerning gambling in general is very important, this includes the collective agreement between the management and how they respond to gamblers satisfaction of services, a gambling casino must make a protocol to observe a routine management practices and occasionally cross-check and receive feedbacks to avoid vulnerabilities at all cost, so money as been mentioned is one of the cogent factors needed in this area as well.

On the time that you had made yourself able to build up that kind of trust and confidence on the gambling community, then you would definitely be able to expect that revenue which its just common sense for its
owner to allocate funds on continuing to enhance not only on looks and offering but also in security aspect as well.You cant really just ignore on this aspect because security is one of the most important
thing where people do really look on.If they do saw that they arent completely safe on the platform that they are playing then they would eventually flock away and would find another one.
There's no perfect security in all sites that we do have but having precautionary measures do always work wonders.

While building the website, some bugs are unknowingly left by the developers, which hackers exploit to hack the website.

I think casino websites should have bug bounty programs on their site.

So that, if someone /whitehat hacker finds a bug, he or she will inform the casino owners or security department of it in order to receive a reward.

After that, they (casino security department can fix the bug) and can avoid significant loss, by paying a small amount of money.


I've seen it on many major websites for whom security is very important. Like, facebook, twitter, paypal, google, linkedin, and shopify. etc

I know you are right and this will help the casino team to regularly cross check for any bugs that could lead to hack which can cause big problem to the casino. Bug bounty program can only cause little spending fund by the casino compared to if the casino become hacked that could lead to bigger damages.
There are many ways to check for this which could also yield to the same result. Some casinos may be afraid of putting their sites into big risk of hackers using the opportunity to exploit their platform if any bud if found and it's not disclosed to the casino team.

I have the same opinion, he is not doing anything illegal and that is what matters, however when we observe that there are different types of KYC that are for the withdrawal of funds, and this one in particular, they have to make sure that everything is fine, more because it already comes from a minimum precedent, so in every casino when something like this happens, it is obvious that the alarms are activated, but nothing to write home about, sometimes these things happen and it is normal, personally I have always said that when a casino asks for KYC it is to comply with the licensing regulations and that is something that cannot be denied, because when you want to have more security in the casinos, they have to comply with it so that they do not close them and have their authenticity.

There's nothing that you can do to avoid the casino once they start to ask you about KYC, they have the right unless you see nothing from the terms and conditions which may be possible that they forget to write it up, but mostly they don't. It's the protection of their business and they claw for everyone. And with your point, casino ask KYC to protect also their business, with the government rules they needed to comply to continue their permits.

This is why pentests are so important, if you do a pentest before you go public with anything that means you are going to learn about what's going to happen, and any white hat hacker would be able to get you to fix something and you would be able to pay a decent amount of money for it but not get hacked in the future.

This costs a lot of course, it could be in a bounty type, like offer 10k dollars to anyone who can hack into it, or it could be more like payment, where you pay 2k to 5 different good white hat ones. With the second one you do not know if they did a good job, but with the first one there is 10k to be made so everyone will work very hard.

The costing for doing the test is much cheaper compared to a white hack that can exploit the casino, the damages that those hackers can do will be able to empty your casino capital, it's still cheap to do the bounty than to push your business and experienced such big losses.

Upon developing an application like this a gambling casino there's a testing happen which is the beta and alpha testing, in beta testing those some bugs are fix already by the Quality Assurance Tester or the QA and make a report to the devs afaik some of them releases those in public so they can use it for a while and in the Alpha testing this is for the public release that open for the community and sometimes they saw the late bugs after release on the public so even though they given the testing already in Pen test still there's a possibility bugs might find by the users and it is good to report to help the devs too but sometimes if they saw a chance they abuse these bugs.

While playing a game, consider casino by playing many games.You can learn more from it.Because nothing we can get free, learning from each game will make you get all your old loss.When you earned certain money, you should have an habit of withdraw such funds.Because if you keep on playing means, it may leads to loss.Actually our mindset will not allow to do so.But we should over come the mindset and get away from huge loss.After some days you can play to win some games.

Every time I enter a casino, I have a winning mentality, and I refrain from spending more than normal, that's why I always limit myself to my deposit and when I run out I don't deposit more, one day I deposit more than normal to divide it into several days and it turns out that in a game I felt that I got addicted, and when I saw it I had eaten the entire money of what was going to be my fun in days, and those days I could not play or do anything, because if I put more money that would affect my daily expenses and that is not the idea, I think that above all responsibility should always persist, that is what separates us from being human from animals.

Yes, you are right. There were many vulnerabilities in gambling sites, and sites still have them. Things change occasionally, and fixes are made upon acknowledging those bugs. It was not a new thing in the past and the current ERA. These changes are a part of better development so need not be worried for the same.

Well, there is something that must be rescued, and that is that as time goes by, the best in casino security is bigger, they are getting stronger, but obviously intelligence is also growing, so this is something that casinos must be aware, there will always be people with bad intentions that when they see a vulnerability they will exploit it, that is something that always happens, for now I have seen a lot of security in the casinos that are in the forum, above all the security impresses me which has stake.com. bitcasino.io, sportsbet.io, are the casinos that I see the most with the highest computer security.

I have the same opinion, he is not doing anything illegal and that is what matters, however when we observe that there are different types of KYC that are for the withdrawal of funds, and this one in particular, they have to make sure that everything is fine, more because it already comes from a minimum precedent, so in every casino when something like this happens, it is obvious that the alarms are activated, but nothing to write home about, sometimes these things happen and it is normal, personally I have always said that when a casino asks for KYC it is to comply with the licensing regulations and that is something that cannot be denied, because when you want to have more security in the casinos, they have to comply with it so that they do not close them and have their authenticity.

Yes, you are right, I think that a player can argue that if he is not in the terms and conditions he can fight with more bases in it, and possibly win, however now the layees for the casinos protect them a lot, since they started they accept that they can requiring KYC everything fell apart for some players who always seek anonymity and privacy this can be very annoying and for that reason there will be so many discussions and debates, but I am sure that in the future this will no longer be the problem, because little little by little privacy and anonymity is a right that little by little they have been taking away.

Not all users report bugs to improve casino security but some users take advantage to increase the win factor of the bug injected into the developed application, but of course the team will be able to track it because of the high win factor and the team will block the account due to prohibited activities in the online casino terms and conditions.

I would guess that what we can do as gamblers would be to just ignore the ones that ask for it. I mean they could still ask for it in the middle of it, but if there are places that ask for it right away, then just ignore them and don't gamble there. I am gambling right now in plenty of places and aside from my "real name" which can be faked, I haven't given anything to any place ever. That means there are still tons of places, dozens even, that you could still gamble and not share any information about you.

This doesn't mean that if you win something huge one day, they wouldn't be asking, maybe one day they will ask from me too, but at least they haven't so far. That’s what gamblers can do about KYC required places.

[Dunamisx]

Almost all the challenging vulnerabilities casinos had been facing since the past had been taken care of and the major areas had been tackled by all means despite that many have been through alot as a result of this, things have now gone advanced with online gambling and no any physical means of assault or abuse could come in through this for both the gamblers and the casinos as long as new improvement is made over the past ones.

While building the website, some bugs are unknowingly left by the developers, which hackers exploit to hack the website.

actually not because it was abandoned by the development team but rather gambling websites will always have bugs that may not be detected by the development team so it looks like it was abandoned by the development team even though it's all because the bug was not detected by the team

I think casino websites should have bug bounty programs on their site.

gambling sites don't need bug bounties anymore but they already have a team of developers in the security department who always develop the security of the gambling site. maybe in my opinion some gambling sites have also collaborated with some white hackers to maintain the security of the gambling site

I've seen it on many major websites for whom security is very important. Like, facebook, twitter, paypal, google, linkedin, and shopify. etc

it's not only facebook, etc., that are concerned with the security of their websites, but if you know that there are also many big gambling sites that have good reputations, they also maintain the security of their platforms from hacker attacks.

This is no doubt. If gambling sites cannot prioritize the security of their websites, they will be hacked, either by hackers or irresponsible members, because they know they can exploit some loopholes. The big gambling sites will always update their security systems so that people can not use the vulnerabilities, and their sites can always be safe, although that doesn't mean it's 100% safe. That's the point if the websites have a security team who will always make sure everything is under their control.

I get your point and it's true there are still place/house that practicing anonymous gambling though chances that if you big the requirement of completing KYC is possible to apply. If you are capable of finding a place where you can play and continue to hide your real identity, then it's better for you to play in that kind of setup.

We never know when those sites/place will ask for your identity. Just be ready. Either you quit using the site or comply with the requirements. All remain the same. It's you to decide.

There are a lot of vulnerabilities - external and internal both.
A hacker can sit by the road site and use the public internet to hack the website hence the autorites will be in constant limbo who has damaged their repute in business.

Hackers can go extreme to ensure a casino is being hacked using different means for an attack, but there are also some casinos which has developed strong resistance toward such attempts such a way that they will get notified of the attempts and put such suspicious moves under surveillance, some can trace them even to apprehend them, but before a casino can be this smart it takes a lot of time and resources in building a resistant wall against such attempts of its kind, if a casino is not reluctant enough to spend the required finances to maintain a good network for their website.

Sorry, but I don't understand why you are bringing this kyc matter although it has nothing to do with the topic subject. I'm not following your reasoning!
Broaching the kyc topic is only relevant when talking about vulnerabilities in general like when personal accounts can be hacked. But in this particular case, the OP is talking about vulnerabilities in the game itself.

Sometimes some people discuss what I don't know and that is why it is good for someone to read and articles or what is has been written here as a response before responding to the person I believe that some people does not read what all this has been written before they can react to it that is one of the many things or major things that lead them to write abstract in this platform so kyu nahi have seen it that it has nothing to do with the discussion but he brought it into discussion it is not right

Usually there are indeed people who do just simply read up the topic title without even reading up on whats the body or the content or queries which the op had been asked out and directly make out some response
which it did turn out to be that too far off on the topic which they do really make up themselves to look dumb.Back on topic about vulnerabilities then there's always the chance or odds that platforms or sites could really be hacked up or been exploited.HAckers are everywhere
and just waiting up for the right opportunity for them to attack and hack out a platform or site if they do really saw opportunities on doing so.
This is why as a site owner then you should really give emphasis into your sites security.

[LUCKMCFLY]

a single mistakes can cause a business to be ruined.

I think this is true most especially in an online business. I remember there are one crypto project who got hacked and lost millions of dollars. The reason is only because of a tiny mistake in the code. It sounds crazy but it happens. That's how good the hackers are. They inspect every element and if they have spotted something which aren't right, that's the time they will try to attack.

That is the advantage of great hackers because they can detect leaks from the system and even in the code. And this makes every developer have to stay alert, do frequent checks on their site, and ensure that everything is safe. I'm sure the team of every trusted casino always does this and there are even some casinos that do leak searches and offer big rewards to invite their people or members to help them find leaks on their site. So this is not an easy task for every casino as they have to compete with other casinos in maintaining security on their site.

Exactly, when we have a casino or a company that does not have enough security, a single mistake can cause total decapitalization, and I don't know, but there are many casinos that have been online and appear here in the forum, and I don't know. If in some play or something the casino has also had an error, it has to pay a lot of money to a user and that is why it has also been the cause of the crash.

On the other hand, we have also witnessed that some users have been beneficiaries of certain bonuses and free money that sites sometimes offer, and this becomes a vulnerability, this is usually quite common.

On this forum, many new online casinos are constantly being released, which makes us always have to be careful because some of these new casinos are still under development, especially for security. So if you are interested in depositing your money because of the bonuses offered, you don't need to deposit too big money. Maybe after you deposit some money, you can see how it develops and if the casino can be better than before, you can deposit some more money but you still have to be able to control your spending on gambling.

Many people take advantage of bonuses from casinos to abuse so that people can get more bonuses than others. And yes, it is a common vulnerability in casinos.

Yes, things are well known, but I think that this is a quick exit option for new casinos, because they bet that players like to play more and take advantage of it to capitalize little by little, partly when the bonuses have many conditions is a good thing, but they should not be mandatory, if they were free to take the money that is deposited it should be fully withdrawable, and in case bonuses that do not have conditional characteristics are used, it is logical that the bonus must be withdrawable, and not put so many locks, so this means that the bonus is seen as free money, but it is an entry option for more users.

on that side note, abuse can take place the very reason why gambling owners place wagering system on most bonuses, allowing gamblers to take the bonus after wagering the amount but most of the time before reaching that amount you already lose the free bonus from those games or sessions that you take, it's also related with security as it will prevent abuser to suck out from the business wallet,

I see and understand your point but it's also needed to consider other side of potential threats if the bonuses are being exposed from people who are looking for good opportunities to withdraw free money from the site who providing bonuses for their clients.

Well, I understand very well when they are requirements for bonuses, it is something that the casino gives, but it should be like the trading brokers do, that when you register you must previously comply with a KYC, then depending on the deposit the broker gives you double, but that other money they give you, can only be used to trade in "leverage mode" and every time withdrawals are made, that bonus will decrease until it is fully met, but it is a bonus that is not withdrawable, and It can be used whenever the trader wants, it is not an obligation to use it, I think that this way is much better, with that they get rid of any problem or vulnerability in a casino.

Almost all the challenging vulnerabilities casinos had been facing since the past had been taken care of and the major areas had been tackled by all means despite that many have been through alot as a result of this, things have now gone advanced with online gambling and no any physical means of assault or abuse could come in through this for both the gamblers and the casinos as long as new improvement is made over the past ones.

Yes, it is a fact, for me the vulnerabilities of the past in a casino are very different from those that may exist now, the vulnerabilities that existed before were relatively soft and not as strong as those that hackers have developed now, in these times the things have changed, there is a greater degree of danger due to the fact that now computer viruses and everything that has to do with security in the blockchain, it seems to me that there are enormous amounts of bots that are also in charge of security, now the times have changed so they can build more trust in sites, also SSLs that help.

Isn't it too dangerous for them if they do their operations outside? As many people can see them and will observe them. Once those people think they are too suspicious, they can just call the cops for that hacker to be arrested but if ever they got away with their crime, I am afraid the owner of that shop or the owner of that wifi where they connect are the one who will be investigated because the connection is coming from them.

I still believe that hackers are mostly staying indoors and they have so many tools which they can use to mask their identity. One example would be VPN. Sim cards can also be bought cheap and easy to dispose once they are done.

Patra does any kind of hacking, a programmer needs to protect himself as much as possible, and that implies that if he has to use VPN and many tools and protocols that make him invisible, that's what I think he does, because why is he going to be in something that can be tracked, and that has to have a lot of experience to be able to do something like hacking a casino, because it is a lot of security that has to be overcome, there are some hackers who can use free Wi-Fi, so that they do not detect your IP , there is more danger in your own internet than a public internet and that is what hackers do, in many places where I live there are people who have their laptops and from there they navigate using the government wifi.

Hackers knows how to maximize their resources, together with the rising industry hackers are also improving from time to time, they will find ways to break the code and once they penetrate they will leave that place empty-handed, I understand your point and that's possible to happen, since the footnote will show up with the owner of the public Wi-Fi, hackers can simply go freely with the hack amount that he got.

It's very important for each business to take time and invest with the security of their business, especially those who are facilitating online. They are the ones who are on the radar of those expert hackers around the web.

[Yatsan]

Every past vulnerability has been fixed but new era vulnerabilities are very high risk, so make sure your computer is free of viruses and malware by enabling anti-virus applications in real-time mode and always updating virus applications. The vulnerabilities of this era have many ways to penetrate the PC security system so make sure the PC is protected by high security features and avoid phishing sites because many new users do not know the difference between official and fake website links.

one of the vulnerabilities is hacking and scamming and identity theft.
the more people find the ways to secure themselves - the more the hacker gets the ways to find the way to scam people
 

Prevention is always better than cure. Not to brag but I've been gambling online for 3years already and I have not wncountered issues, personally, concerning hacking and scams. Not that long but atleast I am aware of how to prevent these things to occur. I am always careful with the sites I am accessing thru checking its legitimacy. If something is suspiscious, I never forced going through. Also with sites or platforms asking for personal informations. KYC is another thing I guess especially if the gambling site you are engaging yourself into is reliable ( I don't move that much because I am picky). Antiviruses are also not that expensive to save myself from regrets, so I am always updating my subscription. Last thing is not saving passwords and important informations in my pc and other devices (i tend to write em down in  piece of paper and store it away from other people).

Hackers knows how to maximize their resources, together with the rising industry hackers are also improving from time to time, they will find ways to break the code and once they penetrate they will leave that place empty-handed, I understand your point and that's possible to happen, since the footnote will show up with the owner of the public Wi-Fi, hackers can simply go freely with the hack amount that he got.

Hackers are getting smarter than you could ordinarily thought of because some of them solely base on that tricky way to make a living, just as some gamblers fully depend on gambling to earn a living as well, the casinos in other side of it all also depends on gamblers to consistently gambles in their numbers for them to also make profits in their casino gambling business, these three categories of people were undeniable tied to gambling and depend on the outcome hence from it, but the truth here is that the conscious and smartest among them all make a good advantage but going by illegal ways is unacceptable especially in case of the hackers.
