Previously, due to improper installation and use of the OpenClaw agent, some serious security risks have emerged. It is recommended that relevant organizations and individual users take the following security measures when deploying and using OpenClaw:

Strengthen network controls, do not expose OpenClaw’s default management port directly to the internet, and secure access through authentication, access control, and other security measures. Isolate the operating environment strictly and use containerization or similar technologies to limit OpenClaw’s excessive permissions;
Enhance credential management, avoid storing keys in plaintext within environment variables; establish a comprehensive operation log auditing system;
Strictly manage plugin sources, disable automatic update features, and only install signed extensions from trusted channels;
Continuously monitor patches and security updates, and promptly update versions and install security patches.
