A Policy Change To Prevent Abuse on JFrog Cloud
Blog post from JFrog
JFrog announced that starting August 5, 2021, new users of its free JFrog cloud subscription will need to provide a valid credit or debit card to activate Pipelines CI/CD, due to a rise in misuse for cryptocurrency mining that violates the terms of service. This requirement aims to ensure service stability and optimal performance, as abuses have negatively affected resources and support capabilities. The policy only affects new free-level subscribers and not existing accounts, paid subscribers, or self-hosted users. The card information will be used solely for identity verification via a one-dollar preauthorization, which is immediately canceled, with no charges made. JFrog emphasizes that this measure, also adopted by other providers facing similar issues, is necessary to deter abuse while allowing users to experience the capabilities of Pipelines CI/CD. Users with questions are encouraged to contact JFrog's support or sales teams.
