Yggdrasil obtains ISO 27001 accreditation.

Enables companies to further expand into new markets with many jurisdictions using the certification as a regulatory benchmark.

Yggdrasil, the world's leading publisher of online game content, has achieved ISO/IEC 27001 certification, demonstrating its commitment to information security standards.

The international certification is awarded when a defined level of information security standards is achieved, ensuring best practice in this discipline.

The accreditation allows Yggdrasil to expand into new global markets, with many jurisdictions and members of the World Lottery Association (WLA) now using the 27001 certification as a regulatory benchmark.

In addition, as the provider's flagship content creation and distribution programme, YG Masters, continues to grow, ensuring that Yggdrasil's approach to data protection and information security is compliant is an important step for the company's global growth.

Fredrik Elmqvist, CEO of Yggdrasil, said: "Receiving our ISO certification is something we are very proud of and rightly so. We have gone through a rigorous certification process to ensure that compliance is held in the highest regard, which we are proud of, and we are committed to continually improving safety standards. This is yet another feather in our cap as we continue to provide dynamic and immersive gaming experiences to players around the world, while ensuring that YG Masters continues to grow in a secure environment."
