Case Study
Digitain
The Situation
Digitain turned to GLI Secure, formerly Bulletproof’s Information Security Services team, to assist a key client to meet specific certification requirements prior to onboarding on their new payment solution: Paydrom. Digitain is a Platform and Game Supplier, Payment Gateway, and Operator. Since 2019, Digitain has relied on GLI’s cyber security services to provide:
- A complete, 360-degree service offering tailored to complex gaming operations.
- Expert project management for time-sensitive cybersecurity and compliance initiatives.
Unlike smaller competitors, GLI Secure provided not only technical competence but also the ability to deliver in parallel, ensuring speed without sacrificing quality.
The Challenge
With operations in multiple jurisdictions and a rapidly expanding client base, Digitain faced a significant challenge. Without timely certification, Digitain risked delaying the onboarding process and potentially losing a critical business opportunity.
The Action
GLI Secure engaged directly with Digitain’s compliance and product leaders, including Group Chief Product and Technical Compliance Officer Edmond Ghulyan, Product and Technical Compliance Manager Armen Atanesyan, Chief of Paydrom Arin Andriazian, and Group Chief Compliance Officer Arshak Muradyan.
Within just one week of initial discussions, the PCI team, led by Alessandro Dutto, launched the PCI-DSS certification process. Other audit firms were unable to guarantee the speed and scale offered by GLI Secure. By working in close collaboration with Digitain’s internal teams, GLI Secure ensured the Paydrom achieved certification on time—something other labs could not match. GLI Secure provided timing and focus, competence and the ability to perform activities aligned with good project management leading to:
- On-time Certification: The certification process was completed with on-time delivery, as GLI Secure provided results faster than competing firms.
- Operational Efficiency: The switch of platforms seamlessly, achieving significant cost savings.
The Standards
PCI Security Standards Council® set the standards for which GLI Secure used to assist in the onboarding of Digitain’s client. PCI-DSS was developed by the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI-SSC), which was formed by the major payment card brands: American Express, Discover, JCB, MasterCard, and Visa. The council was founded in 2006 to develop and maintain common security standards to protect cardholder data, with PCI-DSS version 1.0 initially released by the brands in 2004.
Additionally, PCI-DSS facilitates the broad adoption of consistent data security measures globally. They provide a baseline of technical and operational requirements designed to protect payment account data. PCI DSS is required for any organization, merchant, or service provider that accepts, stores, transmits, or processes payment cardholder data.
Results
Digitain’s customer was able to switch their underlying gaming and payment platforms to the state-of-the-art Digitain’s technology to realize an important business objective and open the doors to new opportunities.
The PCI-DSS certification by GLI Secure offers several key benefits, beginning with enhanced trust and security, as it demonstrates the company’s strong commitment to protecting sensitive data. This certification also provides a competitive advantage, since few gaming platforms can deliver integrated PCI-DSS certified credit card management.
Moreover, being PCI-DSS certified gives their product added trust. GLI Secure was able to accomplish:
- Increased Trust: PCI-DSS certification reinforced Digitain’s reputation for security and compliance.
- New Opportunities: Additionally, it opens new market opportunities by allowing Digitain to expand its client base with confidence.
Collaborating with GLI Secure meant more than certification to Digitain—it meant growth, trust, and a strengthened competitive edge. By combining speed, expertise, and global reach, GLI Secure proved to be the ideal collaborator for gaming compliance.
