TechFlow news — io.net co-founder and CEO Ahmad Shadid announced a recent security incident involving unauthorized access to the metadata API, which affected the metadata displayed on users' frontends. However, GPU access permissions were not compromised, nor were any sensitive user or device data exposed.
In response to this incident, io.net has accelerated the deployment of OKTA user-level authentication, which will be completed within the next six hours. Additionally, io.net has introduced Auth0 Tokens for user verification to prevent unauthorized changes to metadata. During the database recovery process, users will temporarily be unable to log in. All uptime records remain unaffected, and this incident will not impact compute rewards for suppliers.
