MGA rejects criminal activity allegations after reported system breach
The Malta Gaming Authority rejected allegations of illegal activity made by German security researcher Lilith Wittmann, who claimed to have accessed one of its systems. The MGA said the allegations were unfounded and condemned unauthorised access and the extraction or disclosure of data; it had previously reported a security breach and said it activated internal response protocols.
The dispute concerns the MGA’s security incident and allegations involving operator compliance files and player data.
