Security and integrity are constant concerns in the online gambling industry, and Cactus Gaming is at the forefront of innovation by incorporating Legitimuz facial recognition technology.
This move aims to strengthen the security of operations, as well as promote a responsible gaming environment, in line with emerging regulations in Brazil and worldwide.
Cactus prioritizes user safety and fraud prevention with Legitimuz solutions
Recent Brazilian legislation requires betting sites to implement rigorous identity checks. This includes the need to prevent access by minors and ensure that self-excluded players cannot participate.
Likewise, the new legislation also sets high standards for the prevention of money laundering, requiring strict processes to identify and combat fraudulent activities.
With this in mind, Cactus Gaming, recognized for its leadership in the online betting sector, takes a significant step towards strengthening the security and integrity of its operations by adopting Legitimuz’s facial recognition technologies.
More specifically, Cactus, with its vision focused on the protection and well-being of users, increasingly aligns its operations with these new requirements by integrating Legitimuz’s solutions, the only KYC provider for iGaming in Brazil verified by GLI.
This decision goes beyond just complying with regulations, but also reinforces Cactus’ responsibility to provide a safe and transparent betting environment for all its partners and users.
How Legitimuz’s technologies contribute to the security of Cactus’ partners
Legitimuz’s facial recognition technologies are a crucial component of Cactus’ strategy to ensure compliance and protect its users.
This is because implementing these processes allows Cactus to not only prevent fraudulent activity, but also to respond promptly to attempts to breach security and manipulate accounts.
This entire approach helps minimize risks associated with forged documents and stolen identities, ensuring that the gaming experience remains complete and secure, in addition to restricting access to minors and users with any restrictions.
Verification begins the moment the user starts registering on the platforms developed by Cactus, where Legitimuz uses advanced algorithms to capture and analyze users’ biometric characteristics from selfies. These characteristics include the distance between the eyes, the shape of the nose and other facial markers.
The selfies are then compared with an extensive database of faces, containing more than 122 million records. This facilitates identity validation, which is carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Law (LGPD).
The process is called KYC Without Documents, which consists of the “1 for N” technology, where a face is compared in the extensive database of Legitimuz records, which checks the similarity with documents such as driver's license, passport and ID.
On the other hand, if the user does not have a previous registration, the technology allows validation through the manual submission of personal documents, such as driver's license, passport or ID, using OCR to compare the information provided.
Legitimuz continues monitoring after initial user verification
After initial verification, Legitimuz's system continues to monitor the activities of users already registered on platforms developed by Cactus. This includes ongoing analysis of access attempts to ensure that the account is used exclusively by the verified individual.
It is important to note that Legitimuz's ability to continually monitor user activities is essential to ensuring that platforms developed by Cactus Gaming remain safe and responsible.
At this stage, the system detects abnormal patterns of behavior that may indicate attempts to take over the account by third parties, helping to prevent fraud and unauthorized access.
Likewise, when the system detects patterns that suggest potentially problematic gaming behavior, it can trigger alerts or recommendations for the user to seek support, promoting responsible gaming practices.
Cactus Gaming's concern, through the partnership with Legitimuz, positions itself as an example of how technology can be used effectively to promote responsible gaming practices, protect minors and ensure the integrity of operations.
Cactus provides integration for all its platforms
In short, the partnership between Cactus Gaming and Legitimuz represents a significant step forward in the protection and compliance of online gambling platforms. This means that all Legitimuz facial recognition and KYC solutions are now easily integrated, so that all platforms developed by Cactus adopt a uniform and effective approach to verifying user identity.
This integration ensures compliance with regulatory requirements and strengthens user protection, ensuring the privacy and integrity of their information. This is because by adopting these advanced solutions, Cactus Gaming goes beyond complying with local and international regulations, but also ensures a 99.9% reduction in risks associated with fraud and illicit activities.
Legitimuz's technologies act as a robust line of defense against potential financial losses resulting from fraud and avoid severe sanctions arising from non-compliance with legislative standards. In this way, the partnership not only protects the integrity of the platforms and the security of users, but also safeguards the reputation and financial viability of Cactus Gaming, ensuring a safer and more reliable gaming environment for everyone.
