The Nevada Gaming Control Board’s website has experienced a cyberattack, resulting in the site being taken offline. Although the website was compromised, there is no current evidence suggesting that personal information or financial records have been stolen. This incident follows previous high-profile cyberattacks on the state's two largest casino operators. The impact of the cyberattack appears to be limited to the public-facing website of the state agency, with other state sites remaining unaffected. The nature of the website compromise remains unclear, with some indications of a hack based on messages seen on Google's search engine, as reported by @howardstutz and @TheNVIndy.
