BlockBeats News, February 26 — OpenClaw founder Peter Steinberger recently stated in an interview that OpenClaw has the most comprehensive privacy solution currently available, but security is another matter. All data is stored locally, with nothing uploaded to the cloud. Users have full control over access permissions and stored data, ensuring privacy.
However, security risks are not about being hacked but about losing control. Peter said that the security of AI Agents largely depends on the capabilities of the underlying models. Prompt injection attacks on large models are not impossible, but they are not as easy as people think. Currently, OpenClaw has dedicated security experts, and their main focus is helping users operate safely in new scenarios.
OpenClaw’s security issues remain concerning. Data from February shows there are 341 malicious plugins in the skill marketplace, with a pollution rate of 11.3%, creating serious supply chain risks. However, with the “latest models + reasonable configuration,” the self-defense capabilities of AI Agents are stronger than external perceptions.
