International Game Technology (IGT), a leading provider of gambling and lottery solutions, took certain systems offline following a cyberattack detected on November 17. The breach disrupted parts of the company's internal IT infrastructure after an unauthorized party accessed its systems, affecting several applications and internal operations. In response, IGT promptly activated its incident response plan and initiated an investigation with support from external cybersecurity experts. As a precaution, the company proactively disconnected specific systems to safeguard its operations. These measures are part of ongoing efforts to contain the incident and restore normal functionality. While the financial impact of the breach is still being assessed, IGT has kept its customers and stakeholders informed. The company has implemented alternative solutions in line with its business continuity plans to reduce disruptions and maintain service delivery where possible. Although IGT has not revealed details about the nature of the attack, the decision to take systems offline is often associated with ransomware incidents. However, no group has publicly claimed responsibility. Based in London, UK, IGT employs over 11,000 staff globally and specializes in slot machines, lottery technology, and other gaming products.
