This study used a multiple-case study methodology in exploring the status of IT control in the casino gaming industry. The observations of this research should very much represent the overall status of the concerned issues regarding the casino gaming industry of Macao.

The findings of this research can help the gaming companies to identify the potential enhancement areas of IT control.
