Overview

  • The enhanced security framework went live in early July, fully integrating strict access controls across research and development projects.
  • Information tenting policies grant algorithm access only to employees formally cleared for each specific project.
  • Biometric fingerprint scanners now govern office entry and proprietary systems operate on computers with a deny-by-default internet policy.
  • The company has strengthened its cybersecurity ranks by hiring former Palantir chief Dane Stuckey and adding retired Gen. Paul Nakasone to its board.
  • An OpenAI spokesperson confirmed these measures reflect heavy investment in security and privacy to counter alleged unauthorized model copying by Chinese startup DeepSeek.
