In August 2024, Iyuno experienced a significant security breach by an unidentified individual or organization. The breach resulted in the unauthorized release of several Netflix-related films and series scheduled for release in 2024 and 2025. These films were subsequently leaked on various social media platforms, raising concerns over digital security and content protection within the media industry.[5]
