(PRESS RELEASE) -- North Dakota State University and ProhiBet today announced a groundbreaking partnership for the utilization of ProhiBet’s advanced fully encrypted decentralized cross-monitoring and notification platform. 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.
In addition to the integration of the ProhiBet solutions provided by IC360, the agreement allows for digital educational training for all student-athletes, coaches, and administration staff. IC360 has a proprietary e-learning platform which contains an audit tracking system for visibility on course progress.
“This partnership with IC360 provides sports betting monitoring and educational resources for our coaches, athletics department staff members and student-athletes. The ProhiBet platform will continuously monitor and detect wagering abnormalities,” said NDSU Director of Athletics Matt Larsen. “The dashboard will report real-time information, which in turn will ultimately protect NDSU Athletics. Sports betting is easily accessible to college students, and we want to do our best to protect and educate our student-athletes.”
ProhiBet’s cutting-edge technology provides a secure and transparent method for sports properties, both professional and collegiate, and sportsbook operators, to ensure that athletes, coaches, and league/school administrative staff remain compliant with the intricate web of state regulations that govern sports betting activities.
“We are thrilled to partner with North Dakota State University -- the combination of ProhiBet's state-of-the-art encrypted data transfer system and the NDSU dedication to upholding the integrity of sports will undoubtedly enhance the transparency and trustworthiness of sports betting activities,” stated Matt Heap, Managing Director of ProhiBet. Heap brings a wealth of experience in the field as the former head of the Colorado Division of Gaming’s sportsbook operations.
ProhiBet is the result of a joint venture between U.S. Integrity and Odds On Compliance, now known as IC360. In addition to ProhiBet, IC360’s portfolio of solutions includes integrity monitoring, compliance advisory, and education, along with established products like the Integrity Monitoring dashboard and PlayBookAI.
