Atlaslive renews GLI certification under Brazil’s federal iGaming and sports betting rules

Atlaslive has renewed its GLI certification in Brazil, where betting system providers must keep valid certification and revalidate it annually under SPA/MF Ordinance No. 722/2024. For operators, that is less a badge than a working requirement: if the platform cannot stay certified, it is harder to keep the Brazilian license stack in order.

1. Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), one of the certifying entities recognized by the Secretariat of Prizes and Betting (SPA/MF), completed the recertification and confirmed that Atlaslive’s platform still meets the technical, security, and operational standards required for Brazil’s regulated market.
2. The process covered three areas: compliance testing against the technical requirements of Ordinance 722, an audit of Atlaslive’s Information Security Management System (ISMS), and a cybersecurity assessment that included penetration testing and vulnerability analysis.
3. According to the company, those checks verify that its infrastructure meets the regulatory standards for data protection, system integrity, business continuity, and operational resilience needed to serve licensed operators in Brazil.
4. Under Ordinance 722, betting system providers in Brazil must maintain valid certification and revalidate it every year. Atlaslive framed the renewal as an ongoing compliance obligation rather than a one-off milestone, which is the right reading for any PSP or platform provider watching this market.
5. Mykola Vernydub, COO at Atlaslive, said: “Certification is table stakes in a regulated market. What matters is maintaining it consistently as the platform evolves and regulatory standards tighten.” He added that the renewal, together with the ISMS audit and cybersecurity assessment, is meant to signal to operator partners that the platform is independently verified each year.

Brazil’s regulated iGaming market is described as one of the five largest globally, and it has already moved beyond initial licensing into active enforcement. In practice, that means platform certification is now part of vendor selection, not a decorative appendix to it.
