Does WLASCS overlap with ISO/IEC 27001?
YES. The WLA standard is based on the ISO/IEC 27001 standard, so that many of the requirements are the same. However, the WLA standard has been changed to apply specifically to the lottery industry, and so contains some specific security requirements. These include instant tickets, lottery draw management, retailer security and of unclaimed prize money and online gaming. Note that the WLA standard pertains to generic security management whereas ISO/IEC 27001 is specifically aimed at the information security management.
