Stopping Cheaters in their Tracks
Online casino poker players have one more reason to play by the rules now that
the Bwin gambling group has announced plans to use a new anti-cheating software
from the ICU Intelligence company. ICU is based out of Sweden and specializes in
data mining and predictive database analysis. The company’s new anti-cheating
software, Botguard, protects online casinos and poker gambling sites from
dishonest players using poker robots to cheat other poker players from winnings.
Bwin is based out of Austria and operates online casinos, betting, and poker for
the European market in particular, though other markets as well. Many online
gambling sites are turning to anti-fraud and anti-cheating software as a way to
combat the increasing pervasiveness of cheating and fraudulent technology.
Because the online casino gambling industry is global in nature, players from
all over the world have the ability to access the gambling sites and carry out
fraudulent and criminal activity if the right safeguards are not in place.
The new Botguard uses sophisticated technology and software to analyze online
casino poker players gambling pattern. The Bwin press spokesperson, Kevin O’Neal
commented on the decision to use ICU’s new software on the company’s online
gambling sites, “BotGuard has the ability to detect complex patterns with tiny
shades of differences in huge databases, which allows it to find the players
that are using illegal software. This is what made us choose ICU’s solution as
our next step in the fight against poker ‘robots’.”
Botguard, when coupled with advanced anti-fraud software, allows any online
casino gambling company to be completely protected from falling victim to
fraudsters. |
