Bragg Gaming Group has confirmed that its systems were targeted in a cybersecurity incident discovered in the early hours of 16 August 2025. The Toronto-listed iGaming content and technology supplier said immediate defensive measures were put in place and external specialists were brought in to help assess and contain the breach.
Internal Systems Breached, Operations Continue
According to preliminary findings reported in the company’s press release, the intrusion was confined to Bragg’s internal computer environment. The company emphasized that there is currently “no indication that any personal information was affected.” Bragg further noted that the attack has not interfered with its day-to-day operations and that access to affected data has not been restricted.
In a formal statement, the company explained: “At the present time, there is no indication that any personal information was affected. Additionally, the breach has had no impact on the ability of the company to continue its operations, nor has it been restricted from accessing any data that has been subject to the breach.”
Bragg added that it is “committed to data safety, is taking the matter very seriously and asks its customers and partners for their patience as it seeks to remediate the situation.” Updates on the investigation will continue to be posted to its official website as developments emerge.
While Bragg has not released detailed information about the origins of the attack, the company acknowledged the seriousness of the event and its alignment with recent trends across the gambling sector. The incident follows similar security breaches at other gaming operators in the past year.
In July, Flutter Entertainment disclosed that customer records were exposed across its Paddy Power and Betfair brands in the UK. Earlier in the year, an ethical hacker revealed vulnerabilities in Merkur Entertainment’s German platforms, where sensitive details such as banking data were found accessible through system flaws.
The gaming supply chain has also seen notable breaches. In late 2023, MGM Resorts suffered one of the industry’s most high-profile cyberattacks, leading to major operational disruption, lawsuits, and a reported $100 million EBITDA loss.
Financial Results Released Days Before Incident
The cybersecurity episode comes only days after Bragg reported its half-year financial results. Revenue for the first six months of 2025 rose 6% year-on-year to €51.6 million, supported by new content rollouts in U.S. states including New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut through Fanatics, as well as a development partnership with Hard Rock Digital. The company also expanded into Brazil’s newly regulated online gaming market through its partnership with RapidPlay.
Adjusted EBITDA for the half-year grew by 7.1% to €7.5 million. However, Bragg lowered its full-year forecast in light of higher tax burdens, softer performance in the Netherlands, regulatory challenges in Brazil, and wider market pressures. Updated projections now place revenue at between €106 million and €108.5 million, down from previous expectations of €117 million to €123 million. EBITDA guidance was also revised to a range of €16.5 million to €18.5 million, compared to the earlier forecast of €19 million to €21.5 million.
Bragg has reiterated that while the breach did not compromise customer data or halt business operations, it has moved swiftly to fortify its security framework. Independent cybersecurity specialists remain engaged, and further updates will be shared publicly as the situation evolves.
