Lloyds specialist broker New Dawn Risk has partnered with Continent 8 Technologies, a provider of managed IT solutions to the iGaming and online sports betting industry.
The partnership combines Continent 8’s cybersecurity expertise with New Dawn Risk’s insurance expertise to create a comprehensive risk management approach for operators.
This partnership gives iGaming businesses access to robust cybersecurity services while potentially lowering insurance premiums. Underwriters may offer discounts based on the effectiveness and maturity of the security measures implemented.
The product will initially launch in the UK and Europe, with plans to expand globally. It combines customized insurance coverage with advanced cyber protection services such as managed SOC and MDR, cyber threat intelligence exchange, DDoS protection, web application and API protection (WAAP), and multi-factor authentication (MFA) for end users. By adopting this combined solution, operators can gain enhanced protection while benefiting from cost-effective insurance options.
“This partnership represents an important step forward in our ability to support our clients,” said Elizabeth Grima, senior executive manager at New Dawn Risk.
“By combining Continent 8’s trusted cybersecurity services with our tailored insurance solutions, we offer iGaming companies a true end-to-end risk management package. It goes beyond traditional brokerage to deliver resilience, continuity and peace of mind in an industry where cyber threats and regulatory pressures are constantly changing.”
Patrick Gardner, chief security officer at Continent 8 Technologies, added: “We are pleased to partner with New Dawn Risk.”
“This partnership brings together two experts in their respective fields to provide the iGaming industry with a compelling combination of advanced cybersecurity controls and tailored insurance solutions. Strong cyber defenses not only protect operators and suppliers, but also demonstrate good risk management, which is an increasingly important factor in lowering insurance premiums. As the industry’s preferred cybersecurity provider, we have been delivering multi-layered protection solutions to high-risk gaming businesses for many years, and this partnership builds on that proven foundation.”
