codex - 💡(How to fix) Fix Getting "This chat was flagged for possible cybersecurity risk" on a non-cybersecurity related task. [3 comments, 3 participants]

I'm constantly getting the "This chat was flagged for possible cybersecurity risk" error that stops GPT 5.5 from working. I'm working on a decompiler for a game, it's not cybersecurity work. I tried doing KYC verification but it failed for me, and now I can't even work on this non-cybersecurity project.

TL;DR

The "This chat was flagged for possible cybersecurity risk" error may be resolved by re-attempting KYC verification or providing additional context about the project to avoid false positives.

Guidance

• Review the project's content and ensure it does not contain any keywords or patterns that could trigger cybersecurity risk flags.
• Re-attempt KYC verification to provide more information about the project's purpose and intended use.
• Consider reaching out to support to provide more context about the decompiler project and its non-cybersecurity nature.
• Check if there are any specific guidelines or restrictions for using GPT-5.5 models for projects like decompilers.

Notes

The issue may be related to the project's content or the KYC verification process, but without more information about the project or the verification attempt, it's difficult to provide a more specific solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Provide additional context about the project to avoid false positives, as the issue seems to be related to the project's content being misflagged as a cybersecurity risk.
