VeliTech Achieves ISO/IEC 27001:2022 for VeliPlay and Heaven of 7 ISMS

VeliTech has achieved ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification for its information security management system (ISMS) underpinning the game providers VeliPlay and Heaven of 7. The certification, granted after an independent audit and months of internal work, is intended as a supplier assurance signal to iGaming operators integrating content from VeliTech's brands, positioning security and compliance as core components rather than ancillary concerns.

Certification Details and Focus Areas

The ISO/IEC 27001:2022 standard is internationally recognised for information security management. For VeliTech, the certification applies directly to the ISMS that supports VeliPlay and Heaven of 7 operations. The scope addresses four primary domains:

• Risk identification relevant to information assets and business continuity
• Protection of information through systematic management of sensitive data
• Incident management, including detection and response mechanisms
• Continuous improvement of controls over time

This framework is designed to give operators a clear baseline of security assurance when evaluating or onboarding game providers and their content.

Implications for Operator Assurance and Integration

A growing number of operators require supplier-side accreditation to de-risk their own compliance and integration chains. By obtaining ISO/IEC 27001:2022 for VeliPlay and Heaven of 7, VeliTech can offer documented processes around data handling, integrity checks, and response planning.

Irakli Kakhidze, CEO at VeliGames, commented:

"Operators need more than strong games. They need partners they can trust. This certification proves that security and compliance are built into how we work, not treated as an afterthought. It also gives us a stronger foundation to bring VeliPlay and Heaven of 7 content into more markets."

Operators and aggregation platforms increasingly factor supplier certifications into partner selection, especially for multi-market and regulated iGaming environments.

The Certification Process and VeliTech's Internal Changes

Kerim Bekberov, Head of DevOps at VeliTech, emphasised that the audit process required close collaboration across engineering, infrastructure, compliance, and operations teams to align with the ISO/IEC 27001:2022 controls. Bekberov stated:

"The certification follows months of dedication, collaboration, and hard work across the VeliTech engineering, infrastructure, compliance and operations teams, as well as a detailed independent audit. It demonstrates that our processes, security controls, and operational practices meet internationally recognised standards for information security."

The process triggered systematic reviews and updates of:

• Access controls and user permissions
• Encryption and secure storage protocols
• Incident reporting and escalation workflows
• Ongoing internal audits and review cycles

For platform providers, these measures offer concrete, evidence-backed assurance to external partners—something that is now, in many markets, a licence or integration requirement.

ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and VeliTech's Market Positioning

VeliTech presents the certification as integral to its wider growth strategy, not just a point of technical compliance. By leading with ISO/IEC 27001:2022 coverage for VeliPlay and Heaven of 7, the company aims to enhance its profile with both direct operators and aggregation platforms active across multiple jurisdictions.

The company is explicit that such certifications support expansion efforts, offering a baseline for entering new regulated markets where external audits of information security practices are required by licensing conditions or partners’ due diligence processes.

Industry Context and the Role of Supplier Certifications

The pursuit of formal information security certification has accelerated across the B2B sector as regulatory scrutiny tightens and risk management rises in importance for both operators and their vendors. The ISO/IEC 27001:2022 standard—not unique to iGaming but broadly accepted—serves as a recognised benchmark that is increasingly sought after during procurement and ongoing monitoring.

For B2B technology vendors, investments in independent audits and continuous control improvement can become differentiators when pitching to major operators, aggregators, and platform partners requiring robust security postures throughout their supply chains.

VeliTech’s pursuit and attainment of ISO/IEC 27001:2022 for its core offerings underlines the ongoing shift: operator assurance demands are influencing which suppliers gain access to new markets and long-term commercial relationships.
