Security has always been at the core of OpenClaw's design philosophy. In this release, we've made significant strides in hardening the codebase.
What We've Done
Sandboxing
All skill executions now run in isolated sandboxes. This means a misbehaving skill can't access your file system, network, or other system resources without explicit permission.
Permission Model
We've introduced a granular permission system. Skills must declare what they need access to, and you approve or deny each permission explicitly.
Defense in Depth
Multiple layers of security ensure that even if one layer is compromised, others remain intact.
Best Practices
- 1.Always review skill permissions before installation
- 2.Use strong, reputable AI models
- 3.Keep OpenClaw updated to the latest version
- 4.Report any security concerns to our security team
We're committed to making OpenClaw the most secure open agent platform available.
