INSIGHT

AI Introduces New Risk Patterns

  • AI code assistants can increase code quantity but also introduce repeatable and new classes of vulnerabilities.
  • Many risks are policy or architecture gaps, not classic OWASP flaws.
ADVICE

Own Security Even With AI

  • Developers remain responsible for data security and compliance even when using AI tools.
  • Demand that AI assistants embed organizational security context and controls into their outputs.
ADVICE

Embed Security In The Design And PR Flow

  • Integrate security at design time by enriching prompts with architecture and policy data before code is generated.
  • Scan generated output and warn or block risky PRs before merge.
