The greatest vulnerability of the past is that they enter a casino and steal all the funds and then the casino has the capacity to respond to each of the players, all the casinos are in danger of that, but if a very large robbery occurs What casinos can be here to respond to that? It is known that a vulnerability is a failure of a casino, but players do not have to pay for that failure or bug.

Perhaps one of Gambling's vulnerabilities is its security service to its client users, and also the lack of transparency sometimes other casinos have issues regarding transaction confirmation taking too long. These are the experiences that I have seen in other gambling platforms that I entered to gamble in the world of crypto gambling.

Yes, that's because no security is really 100% safe even though they have done various ways to protect their sites from attacks or hacks.
But at the very least, the casino has tried its best to maintain and protect its site.
And if there are still external attacks or hacks on their site, the security team must try to defend it so that their site doesn't leak.
Most importantly, the casino can take care of its customer data and don't put them all on the same server.

There is truth in what you said, Sir. And it's also sad to think that no one makes perfect gambling platforms that they can do 100% security of their user's clients when gamblers play gambling games. Also, sometimes, if you think about it and look at it, it seems like there is an inside job that is happening as if there is an accomplice in the team as to why there are these kinds of problems or issues here.

It is a problem at all levels in all platforms. The new coding environments are much more focused on allowing the developers to create flows and conditions rather than on creating specific lines of code and the issue with it is that many lines are generated without direct human interaction. We are talking huge chunks of code that will never be beta tested and may carry backdoors and bugs.

sometimes other casinos have issues regarding transaction confirmation taking too long.
In some rare cases, slow transactions may be caused by a bug in the casino's payment system (ex. inaccurate fee estimator) but in most cases this happens simply because the casino has bad services. It's not really a vulnerability which may be exploited to compromise the security of the platform (ie.steal customers' funds and/or data).
Yes, that's true because if some users have suggested speeding up slow transactions but the casino doesn't pay attention to it, it could be a sign that the casino's services have not been able to satisfy its users.
It will also be a sign for users to move to another casino because they don't want to get their money for a long time.
If we talk about the vulnerabilities of a website, it's more about the bugs on the website.
Many things will be related to the website, such as fixing the code with errors.
The team must fix the vulnerabilities immediately before things go wrong, causing the casino to suffer huge losses.

Despite its importance, most casinos - especially New ones- do not invest too much (if ever) in the security of their platforms. They do not conduct security audits or have any bug bounty programs. This is why we see new casinos get hacked all the time.

Yes, sometimes very slow transactions can fill the player with some anxiety that they do not like, and this is normal, it is money that is handled, even when it is quite a lot of money that they want to withdraw, and it is as you say, to Sometimes it is due to a small bug that can occur within the platform, which is why casinos have now treated this issue with great subtlety, and one of the reasons why casinos have put support 24 hours a day is because of that reason.

And one of the big mistakes of the new casinos is that of not investing in security, so when they come out and offer some kind of bonus, it is when they exploit that vulnerability, causing them to go bankrupt on occasion.

No site is ever free of vulnerabilities. If you think of it, all sites are not built from scratch, they use an OS, drivers, layers of software and millions if not billions of lines of code. And there is nothing there preventing someone from installing a backdoor or creating involuntarily a vulnerability that could potentially end with the system being attacked.
Vulnerabilities are found with each and everything connected with the internet. This is the reason why we can see the security system developers are prioritised than the developer. The developer does it according to the user needs, but the security system developers does it from the user end as well as from the provider side. Compared to the past days of easy breach, now things are highly secure and dedicated teams are assigned with specific tasks.
Security does really matter or should really be put up the emphasis since considering that these type of businesses does involved huge chunks of money or simply talking about millions then it would really

be just common sense that they should allocate sufficient budget for tightening the security because that would be a total disaster when someone do able to have those exploits and made out
big damage in overall funding of the said platform.We've seen big incidents in related to this back in the past or even into other projects as well not only limited to  gambling platforms
but also in blockchain projects as well.Everything could really be exploited as long it do really connects out on net or simply there's nothing on this world which cant be hacked.

Man, the Primedice case was terrifying to read.

Imagine sensing something was off but being under peer pressure at the same time to release the funds in order to uphold their reputation.

Most casinos would go down under if that ever happened.

A case was recently presented with a new casino, where its greatest vulnerability was in the Welcome bonus and a bonus that was assigned to Bitcointalk users, but after a few days there was a massive abuse of it and all kinds of problems were achieved. , the people who won some were the same, the fact was that they found a way to be able to exploit the vulnerability of the casino and be taken advantage of to the maximum by players, the truth is I don't know how there are people who use their intellect for this, but it was discovered that the site was a scam and it makes sense, I think that a site in these times cannot have a type of vulnerability of that style, what most deceived many is that it really looked good and a signature campaign was even carried out.
There are hackers which uses their ability for that kind of acts but not all hackers bad, some of them are also working to improve the site's security so that it won't be hacked easily. I guess that the casino you are talking about is bitlucy?

Because, they are trending here last time due to that bonus abuse and then many are saying that they are a scam but it seems that they are truly a scam? They should be the ones that will take advantage but it turns out that the opposite thing have happened. Now that is what you call a bad karma. We shouldn't feel sorry for them despite of what they went thru but I only feel sorry for those who are late to realize it and they got affected.
We know that there are 3 type of hackers;
White,Grey,Blackhats

which does basically means that not all people/hackers considered to be bad.We know that risk of exploits and abuse is really that could really happen anytime if these fellas
do able to see those holes for them to take advantage.About Bitlucy issue then we are all aware of that which i dont know the exact story of this if that situation we indeed an abuse of
their bonuses or just simply an alibi or excuse on what they have actually done specially into users funds or other issues attached.
Yes, in fact it is as you say, what apsa is that I don't know why when it comes to Hackers, we always run into the sites with which they are black hat, and apparently they are the most cunning, they find vulnerabilities quickly with their programs, now hackers require more knowledge of Artificial Intelligence, the algorithms they develop are no longer as simple as before, now they have developed many, the so-called ransamware that attacks everyone, be it companies, personal accounts where what they do is extort not to reveal secrets or important data information, these things are what I mean, in casinos too.

Unfortunately even a casino that takes their security very seriously can still be hacked, and there are many ways in which this could happen but the most obvious one is that someone that is part of the casino and that has the knowledge about the code that is run can easily find vulnerabilities or even introduce vulnerabilities by himself and no one would even notice, then after some time they could hack the casino themselves and earn a lot of money in the process.

Meanwhile there are still many sites that are still not waiting for tx confirmation before crediting the balance!
They're too eager for new betters to their sites and play games right away that skip ahead important protocols in crypto. This is why I think vulnerabilities always exist in gambling sites since the fierce competition between gambling sites force some of the security steps to be lax.
As long as the admin, team, or casino owner can update the casino, especially for security issues, they don't have to worry about external attacks.
It's difficult but I think that's what casinos have to do because of the competition in the gambling world.
Each casino wants to protect its casino from hackers, viruses or other attacks and this is not an easy task because if they don't update their site, their casino will be vulnerable to attack.
Only casino sites that really pay attention to security issues can survive all kinds of vulnerabilities.

Yes, there are 3 types of hackers.

1) Whitehat/ethical hackers; this type of hacker work for companies like a security guard whose sole purpose is to keep the system secure from blackhat hackers.

2) Greyhat hackers; this type of hacker sometimes works for a good purpose. and sometimes for the bad.

3) Blackhat hackers; this type of hackers steal people's data and use it for their own purpose or sell it for money in the black market... Overall their sole purpose is making money.



We know Anonymous group which is a organization of hackers whether these are white or grey [...]
they are either blackhat or grayhat but, they are not white hat for sure.

Yes, but unfortunately the ones who update themselves the most and commit misdeeds are the black-collar ones, and it is very difficult to trace them, normally those who are more prepared by courses or the like is because they have experienced the problems under which those in black suits They always put it on, it is very common for us to see hacks, some that are white collar or white suit help people normally fighting against the tyranny of governments, but they are not as relevant.
We know Anonymous group which is a organization of hackers whether these are white or grey but we cant really tell on whose behind but most of the time i do see on their deeds specially on cyber crimes or something correlated which i could say that they are really showing off some support to those who are in the right side.
It is true that tracing up those black hats is really hard which it cant really be known and this is where white do sits in but we know that its really not that assured on tracing them up.
They wont really be executing hacks without having proper plans on burying up their traces for them to get caught.

Security and stability of a gambling site is of course very important. I think behind the scenes at every gambling site there are people working day and night monitoring the case and constantly checking for weaknesses in the system. They are also learning more and more. Online gambling is something that has been around for a long time, so of course the margins of error also get smaller and smaller over time. Only arbitrage betting remains an unsolvable problem unfortunately.
Well, the issue of arbitration is somewhat more complex, it is necessary to point out that when there is a vulnerability and whoever discovers it does not say so, they only exploit the vulnerability for their own benefit and this is something that many casinos, no matter how much they monitor their security. Sometimes they do not see it, the old problems can be many, and if we start to see today the problems that are generated in some sites are many that continue to put in check sites that are new, that have an outstanding staff and security specialist and even so, vulnerabilities continue to be achieved, it really is a very difficult issue for casinos to control, only the oldest and oldest casinos manage to achieve this type of security, due to their experience.
No doubt, the security team is the should be and consist the most important part of the developers of a gambling site. As, they are charged with detecting and closing loopholes that could be exploited by prospective users/customers but, most aren't efficient in this and you can't blame them in entire. In other for platforms to spurn patronage, they tend to over leverage certain systems like there bonus offerings and this is where most customers look out to explore. More over, it becomes easier to discover certain vulnerability to a platform when you've got over a million persons as would be the case for customers, testing the platform than a mare team of 5-10 persons. Best chances should be in there ability to respond quickly when found!

It's really hard to monitor a website or gambling platform that has many users in it. Securing the gambling website from vulnerabilities to avoid being exploited and abused is a tough job for a team since they have a huge database to manage and look into. In addition, the malware or malfunction of security might happen anytime. It actually happens most during the time the developers aren't expecting it. Hence, some people manage to abuse the error and benefit from it while the gambling site is losing profit.

Although this is why the security team should double time and do their job accordingly because they are being paid to do it right. A strict checking into the system every once in a while is needed to secure the system from glitches. And at the same time, to be able to provide the right punishment for those people who abuse the system by violating the gambling site's terms and policies.

Currently there are many types of Malware, I think that for a website like an online casino you need to have more than security, Ransonware are very powerful viruses, they actually attack many companies, people, emails, privileged information of private individuals, I think that For a casino, all this must be of very high standards, because I understand that if a casino becomes a victim of Ransonware, it would be a very bad thing, because casinos handle a lot of money, not only that of the casino, (their capital) but the money of people, nothing else with this type of problem is necessary every day to invest in security.

A casino may have a vulnerability, but the vulnerability if player funds are affected, is there any kind of law that can protect them? people fully trust the sites when they have licences, do the licenses have any kind of power in the site where they operate? I mean, if there is a casino in Denmark, if there are massive scams, does the Danish government have the power to get people's funds in the casino returned or will they pay with jail? What I think due to a problem like this is that when casinos are created it becomes a private place and it is very difficult for a government to intervene.
