Introducing Advanced Account Security

OpenAI
OpenAI has introduced Advanced Account Security, an opt-in feature offering enhanced protection for ChatGPT and Codex accounts against digital threats.

Summary

OpenAI has launched Advanced Account Security, an opt-in initiative designed for users requiring heightened protection against digital attacks. This feature consolidates security measures—such as mandatory passkeys or physical security keys, restricted recovery options, and shorter session durations—to mitigate account takeover risks. Users who enable this feature also gain automatic exclusion from model training for their conversations. Furthermore, OpenAI has partnered with Yubico to offer users accessible, high-grade security hardware to bolster their defenses, while making these protections a requirement for specific high-stakes access programs by June 2026.
