Playson, the fast-growing digital entertainment supplier, has been granted an ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certificate, reinforcing its commitment to implementing robust compliance measures.

Having previously gained an ISO 27001:2013 certificate three years ago, this updated version is key in safeguarding sensitive information and required for Playson to hold its existing licences in valuable regulated markets.

This latest development coincides with Playson’s plans to further extend its outreach across a number of regions over the next 12 months, paving the way for the supplier to enter new jurisdictions in a more streamlined way.

The accreditation was awarded by Quinel and recognises the provider’s adherence in aligning with the standards that the International Organisation for Standardisation sets, demonstrating its ability to mitigate any information security risks whilst meeting all necessary legal and regulatory requirements.

The 2022 version includes updates and revisions to better address contemporary information security risks and challenges, such as those related to cloud computing, remote working, and emerging technologies. It provides organisations with a framework for implementing and managing an effective information security management system (ISMS) to protect their sensitive information assets.

Vsevolod Lapin, Deputy CEO at Playson, said: “The transition to ISO 2022 is welcome news for the business, and shows our continued dedication to compliance and regulation. Partners can rest assured of Playson’s heightened security measures and adherence to international standards with us acquiring this certificate.

“Greece, Ontario and Sweden are vital territories for Playson, with this certification also necessary for the Swiss market, and I expect the ISO 2022 to be required for more jurisdictions in the future, so this recognition has been received at a good time as we look to strengthen our global standing.”

Players hunt for free spins and falling wilds in feature-filled title

Games Global’s exclusive studio OROS Gaming, has unveiled Magnificent Power Wolf Fire Spirit™, its latest slot utilising the popular Magnificent Power mechanic that promises captivating gameplay and 4,096 ways to win on a 5×4 grid.

Adorned with bear, eagle and dreamcatcher symbols, this Native American-inspired slot immerses players with every spin of the expanding reels, providing ample opportunity to discover the hidden riches with two or more adjacent high-paying symbols awarding a win.

When one or more Magnificent Power Wilds land, it triggers the Magnificent Power mechanic that sees all the coins on screen collected. 30 coins collected upgrades the wilds to random multiplier wilds whilst collecting 60 coins unlocks the extra sixth reel and additional fire and spirit symbols for even more exciting ways to win big.

The falling wild feature is activated should a moon wild symbol appear on the reels. During the feature, the moon wild symbol remains on the reels, cascading down one place on every subsequent spin until it exits the reels from the bottom.

Landing three red dream catcher symbols triggers the Fire Free Spins in which players collect paw symbols that are added to the collection meter. The more paw symbols collected, the higher the prize value at the end of the bonus round with a jackpot of up to 250x up for grabs.

Landing three blue dream catcher symbols triggers the Spirit Free Spins bonus. During this feature, a falling wild moon symbol makes its way onto the reels, one for each spin with a win multiplier of either 2x or 3x. The multiplied wild only leaves once it reaches the bottom of a reel.

With OROS Gaming’s widely acclaimed Magnificent Power series resonating strongly with players globally, Magnificent Power Wolf Fire Spirit™ builds upon this success, with a variety of innovative mechanics designed to immerse and thrill players.

OROS Gaming prides itself on understanding the needs of the end-user, keeping up to date with industry trends and the type of content that resonates the most with players. Through this focus, the company aims to produce high-quality slots that deliver on player expectations.
