Securing the Future: A Panel Discussion on Cybersecurity, Responsible Gaming, AI, and AML in the Gaming Industry
The European Gaming Congress is proud to announce a panel discussion that promises to be a comprehensive guide to a sustainable future of the iGaming industry. Titled “Securing the Future: A Panel Discussion on Cybersecurity, Responsible Gaming, AI, and AML in the Gaming Industry,” this session highlights the importance of a unified approach to creating a secure, ethical, and sustainable gaming ecosystem.
This comprehensive panel discussion brings together four crucial pillars of the gaming industry:
- Cybersecurity: Often regarded as the backbone of the industry, cybersecurity safeguards sensitive data and protects against malicious threats, ensuring a secure gaming experience for users.
- Responsible Gaming: As the moral compass, responsible gaming promotes fair play, player well-being, and the prevention of gambling-related harm, fostering a culture of healthy gaming.
- AI (Artificial Intelligence): AI is the driving force behind innovation, harnessing data to optimize operations, personalize user experiences, and predict industry trends, propelling the gaming sector into the future.
- AML (Anti-Money Laundering): AML acts as the industry watchdog, combating financial crimes and ensuring the legitimacy of financial transactions, maintaining the economic integrity of the sector.
The interconnected nature of these four pillars forms a framework that ensures the integrity, resilience, and long-term viability of the gaming sector. This unified approach is essential in building a gaming ecosystem that is not only secure and responsible but also ethically sound and conscious.
The panel discussion will be moderated by Zoltán Tűndik, Co-Founder at HIPTHER.

Internet Vikings, a licensed hosting provider for the European and U.S. iGaming and online sports betting industry, has announced a new partnership with ScatterKings, an iGaming studio that creates high-performance slot content, helping operators lead their markets across regulated jurisdictions worldwide.
As part of this collaboration, Internet Vikings is supplying ScatterKings with a tailored hosting infrastructure that includes both bare metal servers and VMware cloud solutions in Sweden and Malta.
The collaboration came about as ScatterKings looked to move away from its previous hyperscale setup in favour of a more flexible hosting environment. The company was seeking a partner that could provide greater customization and more responsive customer service.
“We’ve been genuinely impressed with the level of support from Internet Vikings,” said Steven Batchelor-Manning, CTO of ScatterKings. “They’ve helped us avoid the usual hosting headaches and given us a rock-solid base to move fast. As we continue to grow, we see them as a strategic partner for the road ahead—one that can keep pace with our ambitions.”
Internet Vikings is equally enthusiastic about the partnership. Rickard Vikström, CEO and Founder of Internet Vikings, noted the strategic fit: “ScatterKings needed a hosting solution that could adapt to their specific operational requirements. We’re committed to supporting their growth with infrastructure that evolves alongside their business.”

Reflex Gaming unleashes The Cursed Idol of Montezuma Treasure Hunt™ with exclusive Game Mechanic
Reflex Gaming, the UK’s largest independently owned omni-channel game supplier, is heading deep into ancient ruins with the launch of The Cursed Idol of Montezuma Treasure Hunt™, a visually stunning, Aztec-themed slot that introduces the company’s exclusive Treasure Hunt™ game mechanic.
This 6×4, 20-payline title combines mystery, tension and progressive gameplay in a setting inspired by the legends of Montezuma. At the heart of the experience is the Treasure Hunt™ game mechanic, a persistent pick-based mechanic that activates when two Scatter symbols land anywhere on the reels. Players are transported to a 30-segment treasure map where they can uncover Free Spins, cash prizes, Jackpots and Sticky Wild bonus upgrades. Unlike traditional features, the map carries over between sessions, allowing players to build progress over time. Crucially, Sticky Wilds uncovered on the map are banked and carried into the next Free Spins bonus triggered via the map itself, creating layered anticipation and meaningful long-term engagement.
Free Spins can also be triggered directly via 3 or more bonus symbols. Once active, players collect additional Scatter symbols to spin a bonus wheel that can award multipliers, more Sticky Wilds, or one of four fixed jackpots. With a maximum win potential of over 5000x, the feature is rich with excitement.
Adding to the thrill is the Montezuma Mystery Prize, a powerful feature triggered when players land full stacks of Montezuma symbols with the special Cursed Idol symbol. The game’s cinematic presentation shifts into high gear as the cursed idol unleashes a dramatic win event that transforms the reels and ramps up intensity.
The Cursed Idol of Montezuma Treasure Hunt™ also supports Golden Bet, which doubles the chance of triggering Free Spins, and includes Bonus Buy functionality in supported markets, ensuring the game caters to a wide range of player preferences and regulatory environments.
Commenting on the release, Mat Ingram, CPO at Reflex Gaming, said: “We’re incredibly proud of this one. The game introduces something truly unique with our Treasure Hunt game mechanic. It’s Reflex-built, Reflex-owned, and designed to deliver genuine progression and player investment over time. It’s a mechanic that remembers where you left off, and that’s something players will come back for.
“So far, the game has gained exceptional feedback from operators. We believe it’s a standout release for 2025, and we can’t wait to see how the market responds.”
The Cursed Idol of Montezuma Treasure Hunt™ is available from 16 September 2025 powered by Yggdrasil Gaming.

What we value most in Oddin.gg is their drive to continuously improve the product and customer experience, while already being in a leading position. Together, we can take esports betting at Veikkaus to the next level, and we are extremely excited to work together with Oddin.gg.”
Marek Suchar, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Oddin.gg added: “What makes this partnership exciting is the mindset Veikkaus brings.
