N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. tit. 9 § 5320.12
The controller software and any associated critical software used within the progressive system shall have the ability to allow for an independent integrity check of the device's software from an outside source and is required for all control programs that may affect the integrity of the game. Such check shall be accomplished through authentication by a third-party device. This integrity check shall provide a means for field verification of the software to identify and validate the program. The independent testing laboratory approved by the commission pursuant to Part 5318 of this Subchapter, prior to device approval, shall approve the integrity-check method. If the authentication program is continued within the control program, the manufacturer shall receive written approval from such laboratory prior to submission.
