Did people think casinos had impenetrable cyber security??? On what reasonable basis?? People will literally believe anything these days.
No, this is the media conflating the publics perception of physical security and cybersecurity to make a story. If you ask an average person how hard it is to steal money from a casino they'd say it's next to impossible, but if instead you asked them how hard it was to hack their attached hotel's booking system they'd say they had no idea.
Apparently, all it takes is a single call to the helpdesk.
No but casinos historically have had a reputation for having an extremely tight normal security operation because of all the money they handle. It’s why the target in Ocean’s 11 was a Vegas casino. May not have any basis in fact but that’s where the assumption comes from
They also have a reputation of being run by people who will kill you if you steal from them.
