Security and Risk Management Committee

The Security and Risk Management Committee was convened upon the establishment of the WLA in 1999. One of its most important areas of responsibility is the WLA Security Control Standard, the lottery industry's only internationally recognized security standard. The committee manages the continuous improvement of the WLA Security Control Standard, and also oversees the process of member certification to the standard.
