Scientific Games Attains Highest WLA Security Certification for Its Largest US Scratch Game Production Facility

Scientific Games’ US instant scratch game production facility has achieved WLA-SCS:2024 Level 2 certification, the highest level available to lottery suppliers under the World Lottery Association Security Control Standard.

The facility, the world’s largest lottery scratch game production site, is located at the company’s global headquarters in metro Atlanta and serves nearly every U.S. state lottery. It has maintained its existing WLA security certification and is now fully compliant with the updated 2024 requirements.

Certification Framework and Requirements

The Level 2 standard specifies the practices required for an effective security management structure to maintain the integrity, availability and confidentiality of information vital to a lottery provider’s secure operation. It combines ISO/IEC 27001:2022 information security requirements with lottery-specific security and integrity controls established by the WLA.

Scientific Games first earned the WLA Security Control Standard certification for its facilities in 2011. The certification requires an extensive independent audit, annual surveillance audits and full recertification every three years.

Andrew Jackson, VP of Corporate Responsibility for Scientific Games, said: “Holding our instant scratch game production technology and processes to these rigorous international security standards is important to Scientific Games. Our lottery customers and their players are assured that our products are made using the absolute highest worldwide industry standards.”

Global Reach of Compliance

The company’s UK instant scratch game facility achieved WLA-SCS:2024 Level 2 certification in 2026. Other Scientific Games operations achieving the certification in 2026 include the Scientific Games National Logistics Centre in Warrington, UK serving The National Lottery, the SG Studios digital game development center in Jersey, Channel Islands and the company’s lottery retailer technology facility in Ireland.

As reported by G3 Newswire, these steps reinforce security across global instant game production operations. The company also holds certifications including ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 37001 and the WLA’s Responsible Gaming certification.
