Case Study: Directorate General for the Regulation of Gambling achieves secure encryption, data integrity, and real-time oversight of 160GB/month of gambling data with Oracle Advanced Security

DGOJ Regulates Online Gambling with Oracle

The Directorate General for the Regulation of Gambling (DGOJ) in Spain regulates, licenses, supervises, and sanctions online gambling and must process thousands of daily operations—transactions, fees, results, and players’ personal details. Its challenge was to securely store and manage growing volumes of sensitive data while guaranteeing integrity, traceability, immutability, recoverability, high availability, and real-time cross-checks against a confidential self‑exclusion list for regulatory and legal purposes.

DGOJ implemented Oracle Advanced Security to encrypt and store more than 160GB of sensitive data per month, with partitioning and compression to improve performance and manageability. The solution enforces access controls, timestamps and traces all changes, supports robust backup and recovery, and enables real-time cross-checks and anomaly detection, simplifying database management and ensuring the agency meets strict data‑protection and evidentiary standards.
