The National Indian Gaming Commission (NIGC) is undertaking changes to its
website to address reliability and security issues. In addition, the NIGC
has recently been the victim of website hackers. This incident has in no way
compromised the content of NIGC's website or our networks and the Commission
is moving swiftly to resolve this issue. The NIGC website was cosmetically
defaced, which means the hackers inserted their materials in front of NIGC's
homepage by breaching NIGC's current hosting company's security measures.
With anticipation of continued increase in usage of the website, the
Commission is in the process of relocating the website to another hosting
company that possesses additional security against such attacks. This
transition should be complete next week.
