Scientific Games Wednesday announced that Chief Administrative and Compliance Director Stephen Richardson has been appointed to the National Technology Security Coalition’s Board of Directors.
Richardson has 28 years of experience in security, including stints with the FBI and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. With the FBI, Richardson developed and implemented strategies and procedures to identify and mitigate criminal and cyber threats specifically related to financial crimes, foreign corruption, money laundering, and illicit finance.
“Steve’s experience is vast and encompasses overseeing compliance and regulatory requirements related to cybersecurity at Scientific Games and holding senior security leadership roles in the FBI,” said NTSC Executive Director Patrick Gaul in a statement. “He has extensive knowledge and experience with cybersecurity, cyber forensics, and Homeland Security practices within the federal government and private sector. We are honored to have Steve join our board and look forward to his insights about national cybersecurity policy as we continue to shape our strategy and positions.”
Richardson started at Scientific Games in 2918 as chief compliance officer and was promoted to chief administrative and compliance officer in 2021. His responsibilities include overseeing all aspects of information security, information technology, compliance, human resources, and internal auditing.
“We congratulate Steve on his appointment to the National Technology Security Coalition’s esteemed board of directors,” said Scientific Games CEO Pat McHugh in a statement. “Steve is an experienced leader of organizational risk management efforts incorporating identification and mitigation of potential risks, internal and external crisis response, and resource deployment. Scientific Games, our employees, and customers are fortunate to have him on our team.”
At the NTSC, Richardson will serve with chief information officers from a range of industries including finance, telecommunications, food and beverage, healthcare, and telecommunications. The NTSC advocates for beneficial legislative and regulatory policies and encourages dialogue about cybersecurity issues, laws, and regulations through advocacy engagement with congressional members, regional CISO policy roundtables, and its own National CISO Policy Conference.
