Title: Rigs on HiveOS hacked Post by: zenrog on July 17, 2020, 12:58:55 PM Hello I just want to warn you that my profile has been hacked last night.
I use HiveOS for only 4 days, mining eth on ethermine pool, I didnt enabled 2FA, I'm using windows 10 pro and kaspersky internet security. Last night I received a message on gmail that the password on my profile has changed so I tried to access with my user and pass, but pass was incorrect. After that I change password clicking on "forgot password?" and I searched to see if anything had changed on HiveOS, flight sheet was changed with ETC pool and ETC (0x237A77b2710b33bB756711Ad5c6905744807A461) address of course, everything else was fine. This was a very bad experience for me and that is why I shared this with you and to warn you to enable that 2FactorAuthentication. This is what I get few minutes ago from HiveOS on my mail - Hello, **** ****! Our system has detected that your account **** is probably hacked, so for your security we have changed your password. To continue using your account please do the following: ...... Sorry for my bad English. :) Title: Re: Rigs on HiveOS hacked Post by: Lafu on July 17, 2020, 03:30:40 PM Would be nice and good to know where you downloaded the HiveOS !!!
Or what you have downloaded after you have installed it , possible you got some kind of malware with one of the downloads , or you downloaded a HiveOs version with already something in it . 2FA should be activated on every thing you use if its have to do with Money , Coins , Accounts that are important.

Downloaded from official page - https://hiveos.farm/ after that I downloaded Etcher setup, GOMplayer and COD:Warzone :)Or what you have downloaded after you have installed it , possible you got some kind of malware with one of the downloads , or you downloaded a HiveOs version with already something in it . 2FA should be activated on every thing you use if its have to do with Money , Coins , Accounts that are important. Hackers probably doing bruteforce passwords on new accounts without 2FA, my password was easy to unlock 6 letters and 2 numbers... Title: Re: Rigs on HiveOS hacked Post by: HaloGenius on July 17, 2020, 08:24:41 PM Every time when login to Hive OS dashboard and have not activated 2FA on your account you see red banner at top of the screen "Your account isn't protected enough. Please, activate 2FA"
As mentioned @Lafu before if you want be sure that your assets on crypto exchanges, hashrate power in mining OSes, etc are in safe you'll should activate 2FA.
