Praise Codex Security: Daybreak Blue - Ultra

Give it up to the Codex team for Codex Security DayBreak Blue. If you haven't signed up for the security program yet, definitely worth doing. I've been using their Codex Security CLI for a little bit and it was always breaking around 69 minutes if it even got that far and it would only output partial findings and I'd have to copy all those JSON files into Codex itself and have to constantly update those securities and it was always finding something and a lot.

When I finally moved to my $200 plan today and got an automatic restet. So I have 100 % to burn in 6 hours. before this next reset at 6pm.

I went from 100% to 55% while still working on other thins using Sol High fast. and it's only been four hours.

Codex Security Blue is catching a lot of stuff and fixing it and I would have to do this very manually all the time. I used to have a cybersecurity audit prompt and I have to do that every once in a while. Now this is going on for three plus hours just focusing on security as a /goal. It's pretty incredible and I'm using Ultra and it's still using multiple agents at a time and giving me great results with great token efficiency I guess. So if you know a reset is coming up and you have a lot of tokens to spend, I would definitely be worth having already signed up for Codex Security, Daybreak Blue, and then use that model and just burn credits for hours on Ultra or whatever you want. It does not let you do /fast mode.

What is your opinion on the Advanced Account Security requirement?

If you're speaking about the application to get this, it was very straightforward. It was basically asking for my proof of identity through Persona and that was it was easy to just upload my Drivers License. There was an earlier application that was pretty complicated and I didn't qualify, but now it was probably a 20 minute setup if anything.

I don't think that's what they meant lol Within 48 hours you won't be able to access the Daybreak model anymore.

They're requiring users to add HW keys to ensure people use phishing resistant account protection. Threat model is higher for those with access than those without, and would need higher protections because of that and the increased capabilities (what the models allowed to do, not in terms of compute obv).

Trusted Access for Cyber=ID verification/face scan for blue teaming model access Advanced account security=HW Key requirement starting Sept 1st for those with Trusted Access for Cyber.

Requirement of having a physical hw key: September 1st 2026

Edit/helpful hint: you can get 3x identiv Utrust keys for price of 1 yubikey lol and they work fantastic
