OpenAI added Security history to ChatGPT on September 25, 2026. The feature gives users a place to review recent sign-ins, sign-outs, and changes to multi-factor authentication, passkeys, and other security settings. OpenAI says some event details may be approximate or unavailable, so the history is best treated as an account-review record rather than a perfect forensic log.
What ChatGPT Security history shows
OpenAI says Security history includes recent account security activity, including sign-ins, sign-outs, and changes to MFA, passkeys, and related security settings. Events can include time, location, and device information.
Where to find Security history
On the web, open ChatGPT Settings, choose Security and login, then select Security history. The feature is intended to make recent account activity easier to inspect after a suspicious sign-in or a security-setting change.
What Security history does not replace
Security history should not be treated as a replacement for every other account-control surface. Review active sessions and connected apps separately, and use the account-security guidance from OpenAI when an event looks unfamiliar.
A practical review workflow
- Open Security history and review recent sign-ins and security-setting changes.
- Check the event time and device or location details.
- Investigate any event you do not recognize.
- Review active sessions and connected apps separately.
- Change credentials or revoke access when necessary.
Important limitation
OpenAI notes that some Security history details can be approximate or unavailable. Do not assume that a missing detail proves that no activity happened.
