Short Summary
This document, part of the West Virginia Code of State Rules, specifically the West Virginia Lottery Sports Wagering Rule, governs the requirements for online sports pool systems. The systems must ensure the integrity and confidentiality of patron communications, as well as proper identification of senders and receivers. If communications occur over public or third-party networks, the system must encrypt data packets or use a secure communications protocol. The systems must also maintain a separate copy of all logged information on an independent logging device, unless the data is contained in a secure transaction file. Additionally, the systems must provide a mechanism for the Commission to query and export data in a format required by the Commission. The Commission will detail the system specifications and logging requirements in the MICS (Minimum Internal Control Standards), which online sports pool operators and intermediaries must address in their submitted internal controls for approval.
