FDU Partners with IC360 to Establish New Integrity Standards
Las Vegas, NV (September 10, 2024) — FDU and Integrity Compliance 360 (IC360) are pleased to announce a comprehensive partnership designed to support and enhance FDU Athletics. FDU will utilize IC360’s prohibited bettor technology, ProhiBet, to further raise the standards of integrity in competition and provide a top-tier student-athlete experience.
ProhiBet’s advanced fully encrypted decentralized cross-monitoring and notification platform is designed to safeguard sports integrity and ensure adherence to state-specific regulations. ProhiBet will play a pivotal role in preventing specific individuals such as athletes, coaches, league officials, and administration from engaging in prohibited sports wagering.
The partnership will also allow for educational training for student-athletes, coaches, and administration staff, via IC360’s proprietary e-learning platform. These training modules deliver intuitive educational content, including topics such as the NCAA wagering policy and guidelines, geolocation, eligibility, relevant IC360 case studies, and lived experience stories to assist student-athletes and staff in navigating the ecosystem. Each of these tools provides the utmost degree of preparation and protection that combats nefarious, suspicious, and fraudulent wagering activities.
"In a world where sports gambling is as prevalent as ever, it is crucial for us to educate and protect our student-athletes," said FDU Senior Associate Vice President/Director of Athletics Brad Hurlbut. "We are proud to partner with IC360 as their commitment to this mission is directly reflective of our core values at FDU.”
“FDU is a partnership that we are thrilled to announce, as our technology perfectly complements their dedicated staff, who are committed to creating an exceptional environment for student-athletes to thrive in,” says Scott Sadin, IC360 COO. “In working together, we will emphasize the importance of implementing advanced technological solutions that maintain sports integrity.”
