Coljuegos to host cybersecurity training for operators and players

Colombia’s gambling regulator Coljuegos will host a cybersecurity training session focused on online gambling platforms and player protection.
The webinar will be held at the regulator’s headquarters in Bogotá, with virtual access available via Zoom and YouTube Live.
The session responds to a rise in cyberattacks targeting online casinos and betting platforms, including data theft, account breaches and transaction manipulation. It is aimed at both licensed operators and bettors, with content tailored to each group’s role in preventing and responding to cyber threats.
Operators will receive case studies from the gaming sector, an overview of common vulnerabilities exploited by attackers and practical guidance on implementing security protocols. The agenda also includes incident-response strategies and industry best practices.
For players, the training will focus on how to identify authorized platforms, detect compromised accounts and apply measures to protect personal data and funds. It will also outline the steps to take in the event of suspected fraud and explain user rights under Colombia’s regulated gambling framework.
Coljuegos has expanded its training programmes in recent years, including sessions for content creators, influencer networks and industry stakeholders on compliance requirements for raffles and promotional activities on social media.
Coljuegos President Marco Emilio Hincapié stated that the initiatives aim to enhance awareness of regulatory obligations, warning that illegal raffles on social media platforms can expose users to legal and financial risks.
