The WLA Security Control Standard (certification documents)

Lottery organizations need to develop and maintain a visible and documented security environment to retain the confidence of players and other stakeholders. The WLA Security Control Standard is designed to help lotteries around the globe achieve levels of control in line with generally accepted practices and support increased reliance on the integrity of lottery operations. By comparing current practices with those approved by security experts around the globe, certification to the WLA standards provides an objective measure of a lottery organization's security control and risk management performance.

The 2006 release of the WLA Security Control Standard incorporates baseline requirements and controls within the organization's overall security and risk management process, and avoids overlaps with more general security certifications. Compliance with ISO 27001 Security Management System Requirements is included in the kernel of the new release.
