eCOGRA expands in US with Connecticut approval

UK-based testing agency eCOGRA has secured approval from the Connecticut State Department of Consumer Protection (DCP) Gaming Division to offer its products and services in the US state.

The certification allows the agency to provide independent testing, inspection, and certification services to operators in Connecticut.

The independent testing laboratory will also offer its clients software testing, RNG (Random Number Generator) evaluations, cybersecurity assessments, and regulatory compliance reviews to ensure operators meet the necessary regulatory requirements for a safer gaming environment.

The approval means eCOGRA is now certified in six US jurisdictions and 36 global jurisdictions.

With our independent testing, inspection, and certification expertise,” said Shaun McCallaghan, CEO of eCOGRA. “We aim to foster a transparent and secure online gambling ecosystem that benefits players, suppliers and operators. "
