“Catch Me If You Can” subject, Frank Abagnale, to Keynote at SBC Summit North America

Published

on

 

World-renowned cybersecurity expert and fraud prevention specialist Frank Abagnale will emphasize the importance of safeguarding players in today’s ever-increasing fraudulent landscape and reveal how simple strategies can thwart today’s cyber criminals in his keynote speech at SBC Summit North America.

Abagnale, the best-selling author and the inspiration behind Steven Spielberg’s “Catch Me If You Can”, will reflect on his experiences to educate attendees on how identity thieves work and why passwords alone won’t keep the players safe. His “Catch Me If You Can: Cybercrime, Identity Theft and Scams” keynote containing an array of vivid examples and practical takeaways will be a key feature of the ‘Converging Worlds” conference track on Thursday 11th May, at the leading iGaming & Sports Betting event in North America, taking place at Meadowlands Exposition Center, New Jersey.

While many may recognize Abagnale as the subject of the Oscar-nominated film, it is his contributions to the cybersecurity and anti-fraud sector that make him an ideal keynote speaker on this subject.

Abagnale’s fraud prevention programs have been adopted by over 14,000 financial institutions, corporations, and law enforcement agencies over the last four decades. He has also served as an associate of the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) and was a former member of the National Advocacy Center (NAC). Alongside these achievements, Abagnale is a well-known author with multiple best-selling books to his credit including The Art of the Steal, The Real U Guide to Identity Theft, Stealing Your Life and his most recent book, Scam Me If You Can – Simple Strategies to Outsmart Today’s Rip-off Artists.

More recently, Abagnale has turned his attention to the rise in emerging anti-fraud and cybersecurity technology. He spent 10 years as an advisor to the 41st Parameter, a company that developed fraud detection that is used in over 80 countries.

Today, Abagnale works as an advisor to cyber security company Trusona, which offers a passkey-as-a-service platform to help businesses add passkeys to their websites. Trusona will be exhibiting at SBC Summit North America to introduce Trusona Authentication Cloud, showing how it improves long-term customer value with faster, phishing-resistant sign-ups and sign-ins using a tap-and-go experience..

Rasmus Sojmark, Founder and CEO of SBC, said: “Frank has a phenomenal wealth of knowledge around the subject of cybersecurity, fraud and identity theft that transcends any industry. What makes his keynote especially memorable is that it will be equally informative and entertaining with his fascinating anecdotes. I mean we have all seen ‘Catch me if you can’ right?”

“With methods of forgery, embezzlement and cybercrime becoming increasingly more advanced, the need for accessible and innovative cybersecurity tactics has never been more crucial. I have consulted on almost every major breach in the US over the last 40 years and it’s incredible how many were down to stolen data or weak passwords. Over the years technology has evolved at such a remarkable pace, yet cyber security has stagnated.” Abagnale said. “I look forward to sharing actionable tips based on my own experience that can help businesses avoid common downfalls.”

To listen to Abagnale and keynotes from the likes of Matt King (CEO, Fanatics Betting and Gaming), Barry Gibson (Chairman, Entertain), Bill Miller (President & CEO, American Gaming Association) and a host of coveted panelists, purchase your tickets on the official website.

JCM Global Transforms Chinook Winds Casino Resort’s Casino Floor with Towering Digital Signage at High Limit Area

 

JCM Global has installed a towering new digital signage solution at Chinook Winds Casino Resort in Lincoln City, Ore.

The digital signage frames the entrance of the casino’s high limit area and creates a stunning visual destination that transforms the casino floor.

Specifically, JCM installed three curved 2.5mm FLEX LITE-S solutions. The two pillars each measure nearly 8 feet high by 7 feet wide, and they connect to an overhead soffit that is nearly 24 feet wide and 5 feet high. The entire solution is programmable and can display different content for each piece of digital signage or showcase one video across all three signs.

The dynamic digital signage replaced static wood pillars and can feature a range of messaging, images, and video limited only by the imagination. This is the first digital signage project JCM has installed at Chinook Winds. The casino also has JCM GEN5 thermal printers on each of its slot machines.

“This breathtaking new entry into our High Stakes room is just the beginning of all the exciting new changes we will be implementing at Chinook Winds Casino Resort. We are glad JCM Global has been able to be a part of this journey,” said Sean Sheridan, Director of Facilities at Chinook Winds Casino Resort.

JCM SVP – Sales, Marketing & Operations Dave Kubajak said: “Chinook Winds says, ‘It’s Better at the Beach’, and their management proved it with this incredible digital signage installation. Our digital signage team brought their vision to life with our unique curved displays showcasing their high limit room entrance. The movement of the ocean and the whales on the curved signage truly illustrate the power of digital signage and the virtually limitless creativity it unleashes.”

JCM digital signage solutions transform hospitality areas, indoors, and outdoors. They come in a wide range of sizes and options to perfectly fit any space and enhance the guest experience.

BetMGM Partners with Las Vegas Aces

 

BetMGM, a leading sports betting and iGaming operator, and the Las Vegas Aces announced that BetMGM is the exclusive online casino and sportsbook partner of the WNBA’s Las Vegas Aces. The agreement runs through the 2027 season, marking BetMGM’s first major partnership with a women’s professional sports franchise. Key features include prominent signage at Michelob ULTRA Arena at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino and sponsorship across Aces social media platforms. Added components of the partnership for BetMGM players include courtside access to pre-game shootarounds and luxury VIP seating.

BetMGM will also serve as an authorized gaming partner of the WNBA through the 2027 season. Under the agreement, BetMGM will receive commercial inventory on nationally televised games, WNBA tickets and experiences for its VIP players, the rights to co-branded content across BetMGM’s digital and social platforms, and articles on wnba.com/WNBABet. Additionally, BetMGM plans to release a WNBA-branded online slot game in the near future in jurisdictions where its iGaming platform is live. The slot game will be available exclusively at BetMGM and represents the first-ever WNBA online casino game.

Adam Greenblatt, CEO of BetMGM, said: “As we enter this era of tremendous growth in women’s sports, BetMGM could not have two better organizations to partner with than the WNBA and the Aces. Not only do the Aces play in our backyard at Mandalay Bay, but they share our commitment to giving back to the community.”

On May 27, executives from BetMGM, Las Vegas Aces, MGM Resorts International, and The Just One Project (a cornerstone nonprofit committed to increasing access to food, resources and supportive services in Southwest Nevada) gathered in front of The Fountains of Bellagio to launch their partnership. Aces President Nikki Fargas and BetMGM Director of Team & League Partnerships Molly Wurdack-Folt led the festivities, unveiling plans for the “BetMGM Steals for Meals” program whereby BetMGM will donate $50 for The Just One Project to provide meals to food-insecure families for every Aces steal at Michelob ULTRA Arena.

“The Las Vegas Aces are proud to partner with BetMGM for many reasons, but especially for the support they will provide to The Just One Project. As one of the best defenses in the league the past few seasons, especially in front of our home fans, and knowing that each steal will help families in need, this gives our team even more incentive to lock down our opponents on the defensive end,” said Fargas.

Lance Evans, SVP Sports and Sponsorships, MGM Resorts International, said: “Since 2018, the Las Vegas Aces have played a pivotal role in our city’s growth as a global sports and entertainment destination. Together with BetMGM, we look forward to hosting gameday events at Mandalay Bay, as well as our other properties, allowing local and visiting fans to interact with their favorite basketball teams.”

Betting on the WNBA has increased exponentially, and BetMGM experienced 133% growth year-over-year during the 2024 season. BetMGM now offers more betting options than ever before including player props, odds on the 2025 Commissioner’s Cup and increased playoff offerings.

“On the heels of an incredible 2024 season when WNBA delivered significant growth in all areas of fan engagement, and with so much excitement surrounding the 2025 season, we want to continue to lean into betting and finding new and innovative ways to engage with our fans and provide the experiences they want,” said WNBA Chief Growth Officer Colie Edison.

“BetMGM is doing just that by offering new and expansive betting markets for WNBA fans. And by partnering with the Aces, BetMGM continues to recognize the extraordinary potential for growth that comes from tapping into the power of women’s sports and the connections fans have to their favorite players and teams.”

High Roller Submits Gaming License Application in Ontario

 

High Roller Technologies, operator of the premium online casino brands High Roller and Fruta, announced the submission of its Internet Gaming Operator license application in Ontario, Canada, targeting the launch of its flagship brand HighRoller.com in the second half of 2025.

“The submission of our licensing application to access Ontario’s regulated online gambling market is an important milestone in our Company’s journey. Once our application is approved, we anticipate that we will have the opportunity to launch our online casino product into the market later this year,” said Ben Clemes, Chief Executive Officer at High Roller.

Ontario is one of the largest regulated online gambling markets in the world as measured by gross gaming revenue. In 2024, regulated online gambling operators within the province generated approximately $2.3B in gross gaming revenue, and growth continues to be recorded in the first half of 2025. Recently, the province of Alberta passed enabling legislation to establish a regulatory framework for online gambling. Once available, the Company also intends to pursue licensure in Alberta to expand its regulated market footprint in Canada.

“Ontario is missing an elegant brand like High Roller. We’re excited to roll out the red carpet for our new customers, and we’re looking forward to showcasing our tremendous product,” said Clemes.
