Slovenian Casinos Reopen Following Cyberattack

HIT Group has begun reopening its Slovenian casinos following a cyberattack that disrupted the operator’s information systems.

The operator detected the cybersecurity incident during the night of 24–25 August, forcing it to temporarily close six properties: Perla, Park, Casino Drive-in, Mond, Korona and Casino Fontana.

HIT’s hotels remained operational, although with limited services during the disruption.
