OpenAI's Identity-Gated Refusal Tiers Rethink AI Security
OpenAI's Trusted Access for Cyber program shifts AI safety from prompt-based to identity-based refusal, using verified user tiers. The design binds high-trust access to phishing-resistant authentication like FIDO2. It also maintains misuse monitoring even on permissive tiers to prevent credential theft.

The approach is clever but hinges on robust identity vetting and monitoring, which could become a single point of failure if compromised.
