ONGAME EXEC APPOINTED TO ECOGRA BOARD OF DIRECTORS
Online player protection body welcomes IT and audit expert
The CEO of online gambling standards and player protection body eCommerce and Online Gaming Regulation and Assurance (eCOGRA) Andrew Beveridge has announced the appointment of Anders Lantz to the board of directors.
Lantz is Chief Security Officer at turnkey online poker provider Ongame e-Solutions AB in Sweden, one of three industry leading software companies supporting the eCOGRA initiative, which provides players with a better and safer gaming experience through improved operational efficiency and customer care at online poker rooms and casinos.
As a Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) Lantz has extensive management experience in Information Technology auditing, governance, compliance testing and security; financial control and system development and security. He held management positions with major management consultancy and international auditing companies during his career prior to joining Ongame last year.
Ongame is a turnkey provider and poker network owner with the major operator PokerRoom.com as its best known subsidiary. Ongame itself was acquired earlier this year by betandwin, an Austrian publicly listed company and one of the world's leading providers of online gaming entertainment.
"The highly relevant professional experience that Anders has acquired in a brilliant career makes him a valuable asset for the IT and auditing responsibilities of the board," Beveridge said.
Commenting on his appointment, Lantz said: "The players regard safety and fairness as their highest priorities, and it is vital that we demonstrate that we can provide this. Having standards like eCOGRA's eGAPs is crucial for the industry, and I regard my appointment and background in auditing as a perfect opportunity to positively influence the future development of secure and efficient online gaming entertainment.
"By involving industry leaders and making these standards available for independent auditor verification, eCOGRA helps operators and software developers offer superior gaming experiences for the player, and I hope to contribute to this process."
