Regulation1 min read
BETBY said ESIC awarded its Betby Games CPU v CPU product portfolio the CPU v CPU Gold Standard certification. The assessment included an on-site audit, supporting evidence and independent analysis, covering automated match execution, results integrity, security and change controls.
BETBY's Betby Games has received ESIC's CPU v CPU Gold Standard, the company said. The accreditation followed a review of BETBY's CPU v CPU products involving a site audit, supplementary evidence and independent analysis.
The certification covers the assessed portfolio's automated match hosting and execution, results integrity, architecture, change and access controls, infrastructure security, monitoring and incident response. The standard is intended for esports competitions whose results are supplied to betting markets, and covers match execution, results validation and supporting controls.
In CPU v CPU content, software controls the competitors. The standard has 17 mandatory control areas covering the management of match-critical systems and settings, restrictions on unauthorised changes and external influence, and records for investigations and independent analysis.
BETBY general counsel Ilze Ramolina said integrity oversight and controls needed to develop as new forms of esports content emerged. ESIC chief executive Stephen Hanna said BETBY was the first organisation accredited after the assessment and that continued compliance and cooperation with ESIC were fundamental to the award. BETBY already holds Tier 1 Anti-Corruption Partner status with ESIC.
