Following claims from hacking group ShinyHunters that they had stolen millions of GeForce Now user records, Nvidia stated the breach did not affect its own systems.
Instead, the incident was confined to servers run by an Armenian GeForce Now Alliance partner, GFN.am. Nvidia is supporting the partner's investigation, with impacted users to be notified directly, and Armenian subscribers urged to activate two-factor authentication and change their passwords.
"Our investigation found no impact to Nvidia-operated services. The issue is limited to systems run by a third-party GeForce Now Alliance partner based in Armenia. We are working closely with the partner to support their investigation and resolution. Impacted users will be notified by GFN.am."
The clarification narrows the breach’s impact, reassuring most global users but highlighting vulnerabilities in Nvidia’s partner-operated infrastructure. For Armenian users, the risk remains significant, especially if two-factor authentication is disabled, and vigilance against phishing is advised. Nvidia's statement did not confirm the exact scope of stolen data, leaving open questions about potential exposure for past subscribers.
