Since 2004, Scientific Games Corporation has protected more than billion in lottery player prize money worldwide with its patented Key Dual Security system. The system protects against unauthorized attempts to determine the value of an instant game ticket and provides an additional, advanced layer of security for international lotteries’ instant games. Key Dual Security has offered protection for more than 5,000 games, including Italy’s Gratta e Vinci, France’s La Francaise des Jeux, the UK National Lottery and the Pennsylvania Lottery in the U.S.
Key Dual Security, which debuted in 2004, is the result of an investment of millions of dollars and five years of research working with bank and credit card security professionals and other global security experts. A decade later, Scientific Games introduced Key Dual Security 3.0, the most sophisticated instant-game protection in the lottery industry today. Like its predecessor, KDS 3.0 is a patented instant-game data security system that requires multiple keys from multiple and independent parties.
Scientific Games Vice President Operations, U.S. Instant Products, Joe Bennett said, “Lotteries and their players must be able to trust the integrity of the games, and Key Dual Security delivers on this promise. More than a web of software tools that protect the games, it is our entire approach to instant game security with security integrated into every phase of our game design and manufacturing process. The Key Dual Security system, configuration of our servers, global security practices and highly experienced personnel are among the key reasons Scientific Games is consistently selected as the primary, trusted instant game supplier that can protect a lottery organization.”
