The OpenAI Admin Role Assignment rule is designed to detect when admin or owner roles are assigned to users or groups within the OpenAI platform. Admin and owner roles provide elevated privileges, enabling significant control over organizational settings, user management, API key oversight, and critical security configurations. This rule aims to enhance security and visibility by alerting on all admin role assignments, as such actions could indicate potential threats, including privilege escalation attempts, insider threats, compromised accounts, or breaches of policy. The detection rule evaluates input from OpenAI's audit logs to identify any suspicious role assignments, which should be further reviewed and validated against organizational policies and prior approval requests. The response runbook details necessary verification steps to ensure that all role assignments are legitimate and within compliance before proceeding to revocation and investigation if deemed unauthorized.
