OpenAIfeatureAdvanced Account Security
Opt-in security tier for ChatGPT and Codex accounts, designed for people at higher risk of targeted attacks.
Details

- Coverage extends to Codex once enrolled
- Includes phishing-resistant authentication through a partnership with Yubico
- Account recovery becomes harder once enabled, the tradeoff for stronger protection

Who benefits
people at higher risk of targeted digital attacks, plus security-conscious users who want hardware-key-level protection on their ChatGPT and Codex accounts
