IVPN apps to undergo security audit for 2022

IVPN News By Nick Pestell | Posted on January 31, 2022

Last year in March 2021 we published a comprehensive 3rd party audit of our IVPN apps for all platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android). As part of our ongoing commitment to annual audits, we will again be engaging cure53, an independent firm who possess the necessary experience after completing numerous similar projects in the industry. The audit is scheduled to start next week (7 Feb 2022) and we expect to publish the results no later than end of March 2022.

Summary: on 7 August a critical vulnerability was disclosed in BTCPay Server, the open-source software we self-host to accept Bitcoin payments. It was being exploited before disclosure, and we were among the merchants hit: an attacker extracted our Lightning node credentials and transferred out our operating funds.

Annual security audit scheduled for 2026

Posted on June 19, 2026 by Nick Pestell

Consistent with our commitment to regular independent security audits, we have scheduled our eighth annual security audit with Cure53, to be conducted over the course of two weeks in July. As in previous years, audits target systems and services that have undergone significant updates and where review provides the most value to customers in terms of security and auditability.
