Indigo Sky Casino and Resort, along with Outpost Casino, have disclosed a data security incident, notifying individuals whose personal information may have been accessed during the incident. The casinos detected unusual activity on their computer network, prompting an immediate internal investigation and collaboration with law enforcement.
