MGA guidelines for data replication in Malta

The Malta Gaming Authority requires the following information about Data Replication Servers in Malta. Our hosting solutions facilitate all this and are fully compliant with these requirements:

Details about the replicated server including physical location, rack number and IP addresses;
Details about the connectivity to the live servers, including details of the security protocols in place.
Details on the type of data being replicated and its transmission frequency including time lags, if any, between the processes taking place on the live servers and the replication servers.
A fully-documented procedure, allowing MGA officials immediate and unhindered access to be able to conduct routine or ad hoc inspections on the replication server
Hosting locations should be subject to an information Security Management System (ISMS) throughout the term of a gaming licence as guided by ISO/IEC 27001:2013
