Latest developments

9 November 2026Claude Code stores approved commands containing passwords in settings.local.json

If you choose "Yes, and don't ask again" in Claude Code, the tool saves the command verbatim in .claude/settings.local.json, including passwords or API keys. Apiiro found real secrets in 1,122 of 104,185 public copies on GitHub, including 379 database passwords. Keep the file out of git, use variables for secrets, and replace any keys that have already leaked. source

5 November 2026Flaw in Lockdown Mode patched

Via pop-up windows in the HTML preview of code blocks, an attacker could bypass Lockdown Mode and siphon off your chat history, via a manipulated prompt, GPT or shared chat. OpenAI patched the flaw on 18 September 2026; Check Point published the details on 5 November. Users do not need to do anything. source

November 2 2026Message threads (beta) fall outside Zero Data Retention

With message threads in the Claude API, Anthropic stores the conversation, the system prompt and the tools on the server, encrypted in memory and not on disk, until up to one hour after the last use. The feature does not qualify for Zero Data Retention; your other ZDR agreements still apply. If you work with personal data under ZDR, only enable threads if your DPIA covers it. source

Questions

How safe is Verticai for social domain & youth care?
Verticai has a strong published GDPR profile and, with the right business settings, is well suited to social domain & youth care. EU options, no training on your data and/or self-hostable.
Does Verticai train on my data?
According to the Algoritmeregister (municipality of Amersfoort): speech via Azure Speech, language models GPT-4o/GPT-4o mini, Claude Sonnet and Llama, hosted on the provider's own servers within the EEA; transcripts are first stripped of personal data. ISO 27001 and NEN 7510. Ten free consultations to try the software (according to the provider).
What should I watch out for with AI in social domain & youth care?
In the social domain this involves special category personal data (health, debts, family situation, sometimes of children). Never use a free chatbot for conversations or files. Conclude a data processing agreement, require processing within the EU and no training on your data, ask which language models and sub-processors sit behind it, and carry out a DPIA. Ask the resident for consent before you record a conversation, and explain how long the recording and text are kept. Do not let AI itself judge whether someone is entitled to a provision or benefit: the EU AI Act classes systems that determine access to public services as high-risk, and the childcare benefits scandal shows what goes wrong without human checking. Register the application in the Algorithm Register and check every report before it goes into the file.
