Jake’s 58 casino in Islandia reopened Friday morning after being closed three days this week due to a “cybersecurity event.”
The casino’s Facebook page announced around 9:30 am [Friday] that the “casino floor is now open” and “ready to welcome its players back.”
The sudden shutdown was caused by a “cybersecurity event” at the upstate offices of the Las Vegas-based company that operates New York’s video lottery machines, state officials and the company said late Thursday.
Jake’s 58 remained closed for a third day Thursday while state Gaming Commission officials investigated the service interruption, which also affected the Resorts World Hudson Valley casino in Newburgh.
