ChainCatcher news, according to a report by Phoenix Technology, OpenAI recently posted a job listing seeking an internal risk technical investigator, aimed at "enhancing the company's ability to defend against internal security threats." The job listing indicates that the responsibilities include analyzing anomalous activities, detecting and mitigating internal threats, and collaborating with the human resources and legal departments to "investigate suspicious activities."It is reported that in 2023, OpenAI became a target for malicious actors. At that time, hackers breached its internal messaging system. This incident came to light because two insiders leaked information to The New York Times. Besides the hacker organization, this job listing seems to indicate that OpenAI is concerned about threats from its own employees, although it is still unclear what specific threats OpenAI is guarding against.
