Embrace a World of Game Protection
Discussion with Frank Floor on the Topic of Gaming Education and the 2025 Worldwide Gaming Professional Championship
In the ever-evolving realm of casino gaming, a constant thirst for knowledge is paramount. As the pioneering economist Albert Einstein once said, "Once you stop learning, you start dying." This adage holds true especially in a world as dynamic as ours. However, with a majority of the casino industry rooted in experiential learning and an absence of comprehensive manuals, it can be challenging to stay ahead of the curve. Enter the World Game Protection Conference – a beacon of innovation and knowledge in the casino surveillance and security sector.
For almost two decades, the visionary duo Willy and Jo Allison have helmed this unique event. Starting their journey after leaving their previous careers, they've been instrumental in educating casino professionals about the ever-present threats to our industry profitability. In the face of escalating compliance violations, increasing cyber-attacks, and the advent of deep-fake technology, understanding the complexities of surveillance and security has become crucial.
The conference has evolved over the years, retaining its freshest format every time while remaining adaptable to the latest threats and technologies. The roster includes industry experts exchanging the latest information about scams, cheats, and other security threats, along with "core" classes on the basics of security, surveillance, and operational tips for casinos. Keynote sessions encompass a wide range of topics that may seem unrelated but often carry unexpected insights.
The strength of the World Game Protection Conference lies in its focus on education. According to Willy Allison, the event prioritizes learning and places vendors' booths in a secondary role. As a result, the conference boasts a loyal exhibitor base, which showcases the most advanced technologies for attendees to explore.
Willy Allison's philosophy of embracing diversity and controversial ideas has led to the incorporation of speakers who are often adversaries in the eyes of other surveillance professionals. These include hackers, slot cheats, card counters, sleight-of-hand masters, and other advantage players. Engaging with these individuals allows casino professionals to gain invaluable insights into their adversaries' methods and concepts, making their defenses stronger.
Despite the all-encompassing nature of the conference, attendance has remained relatively low among gaming department operators and even general managers. However, knowing what you're up against is half the battle in our ongoing quest to safeguard profitability, regardless of the department you represent.
The 2025 World Game Protection Conference is set to take place on March 11 at the Rio Las Vegas Hotel & Casino. A quick Google search for "WGPC Las Vegas" should provide you with more information about the event. For casino professionals, we highly recommend adding this must-attend event to your calendar.
