Statement of Vermont Lottery on Brightstar Global Solutions Data Breach
Berlin, Vt.—The Vermont Lottery is aware of news reports claiming that a Vermont Lottery vendor failed to appropriately notify the Vermont Attorney General’s Office of a data breach impacting Vermonters.
This reporting is inaccurate. Brightstar Global Solutions is not a vendor of the Vermont Lottery, nor are they subcontracted for any Vermont products or business through the Vermont Lottery’s gaming vendor, Scientific Games.
Vermont Lottery takes information security and the protection of all players’ personal data very seriously. All official Lottery vendors are required to meet stringent state and contractual data protection standards. Vermont Lottery maintains continuous oversight to ensure compliance.
