# Combating online child sexual exploitation & abuse

# Claim

Discover how OpenAI combats online child sexual exploitation and abuse with strict usage policies, advanced detection tools, and industry collaboration to block, report, and prevent AI misuse.

# Relevance

Appendix III, section two: vendor threshold and platform capability evidence

# Oracle Verdict

This is a lower-to-mid strength vendor signal for the capability register. It does not prove displacement on its own, but it records another platform step that can later show up as workflow automation, procurement change, or organisational dependency.
