🛡 OpenAI Launches Lockdown Mode to Protect Against Prompt Injections
OpenAI has introduced Lockdown Mode—a specialized security mode designed to protect against prompt injection attacks. It minimizes the risk of data leaks by disabling the most vulnerable features: live web browsing, image search, Deep Research, and autonomous agentic functions.
🌍 This is a significant step toward establishing security standards for LLM agents, offering a compromise between functionality and protection by limiting the attack surface.
👤 For ChatGPT users working with sensitive data, this mode will help significantly reduce the risk of the model being forced to reveal secret information through third-party websites or files.
