Pourquoi c'est important
Prompt injection attacks pose risks to chatbot security by manipulating responses.
OpenAI announced a new feature, Lockdown Mode, to protect against prompt injection attacks by limiting certain ChatGPT functionalities. This mode disables live web browsing, image retrieval from the web, deep research, and agent mode, though cached content access and image generation remain available. While OpenAI acknowledges Lockdown Mode doesn’t guarantee complete immunity, especially from cached or uploaded malicious content, its primary goal is to reduce sensitive data exposure risks. Initially, Lockdown Mode is being rolled out to self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts and select personal accounts, targeting users who frequently handle sensitive information.
