OpenAI Help: Lockdown Mode

OpenAI has announced the rollout of Lockdown Mode for eligible personal and business accounts, aimed at mitigating data exfiltration risks associated with prompt injection attacks by restricting outbound network requests. While Lockdown Mode enhances security by limiting the exfiltration of sensitive data, it does not prevent prompt injections from influencing the content processed by ChatGPT. This feature is particularly relevant for users with elevated risk profiles, as it offers a trade-off between security and functionality, addressing a critical aspect of the "Lethal Trifecta" in LLM security.
