}What issue are you seeing?
I am an individual security learner using Codex CLI only for authorized CTF challenges and sandboxed lab environments. When I open https://chatgpt.com/cyber to complete Trusted Access for Cyber verification, I receive this error: "We couldn't start verification. You may not be eligible for this verification flow right now." The available TAC application then routes me to an enterprise intake form requiring organizational security certifications and enterprise security attestations. As an individual user, I cannot truthfully complete or certify those organization-level requirements. Please check whether this account is eligible for the individual Trusted Access for Cyber identity-verification flow, or provide the appropriate individual verification path. Thread ID: 019fbe91-3b0e-7141-975d-4de522b78533
What steps can reproduce the bug?
What steps can reproduce the bug?
Sign in to ChatGPT with the same account used by Codex CLI.
Open https://chatgpt.com/cyber.
Attempt to start the Trusted Access for Cyber verification flow.
Observe the error message:
"We couldn't start verification. You may not be eligible for this verification flow right now."
The available TAC application path opens an enterprise intake form requiring organization-level certifications and security attestations, which an individual user cannot truthfully complete.
This does not require a code snippet; it is an account verification and eligibility-flow issue.
Thread ID: 019fc324-8528-7963-8ade-863dab57a272
What is the expected behavior?
An individual user performing authorized CTF challenges and sandboxed security labs should be able to access the individual Trusted Access for Cyber identity-verification flow.
If the account is not eligible, the page should provide a clear reason and an appropriate support or appeal path, rather than routing the user to an enterprise-only application that requires organizational security certifications and attestations.
Additional information
I use Codex CLI only for authorized educational CTF challenges and isolated cybersecurity labs. I do not test live third-party systems without explicit authorization and do not provide, resell, embed, or route TAC-backed model access to customers or other third parties.
