From Months to Minutes: How AI Is Forcing Companies to Rethink Software Security
Criminals once needed two years to turn a software flaw into a working attack. By next year, that window is expected to shrink to four hours. Companies that patch on a quarterly schedule are already behind.
CodeSecCon Brings Developers and Security Teams Together to Fix a Growing Blind Spot
A virtual conference focused on building safer software is drawing both coders and cybersecurity professionals to the same table, a pairing that rarely happens and badly needs to.
When Developers Ship 50x More Code, Security Becomes the Traffic Jam
AI coding assistants are pumping out software at a pace human security teams were never built to match. The real question is not whether bugs slip through, but whether anyone still knows what got shipped.
Tel Aviv Security Firm Oligo Raises $60 Million to Catch Hackers in the Act
Oligo Security has now raised $140 million total to build software that watches running apps in real time and blocks attacks the moment they happen, rather than waiting for a patch.
The Security Scanners Protecting Your Code Could Be the Way Hackers Get In
A researcher found that five unnamed security vendors' own scanning tools could be tricked into handing over cloud passwords, production databases, and developer credentials, just by feeding them a rigged code repository.
AI-Written Apps Are Shipping With Hundreds of Security Holes, Study Finds
A new analysis counted 434 exploitable flaws across apps built with AI coding tools. The findings raise hard questions about who is responsible when software writes itself.
AI Security Scanners Are Drowning Teams in False Alarms, and the Fix Isn't More AI
More than 60% of flagged security flaws are noise. A researcher testing a dozen tools says AI models make the problem worse, not better, because they lack the context to tell a real threat from a ghost.
Capital One Releases Free AI Security Tool That Hunts Down Code Flaws Automatically
VulnHunter scans software for exploitable weaknesses and suggests fixes. The bank is giving it away free, arguing no single company can solve this problem alone.
AI Writes Code Faster Than Anyone Can Check It. That's the Problem.
Machine-generated code is flooding into production with fewer human eyes on it. Defenders are being asked to catch what nobody wrote by hand.
TrustCloud Wants to Kill the Security Questionnaire. Here's the Pitch.
Continuous analysis of security, infrastructure, and governance data sounds compelling. Whether it replaces the questionnaire grind depends on what 'real-time' actually means at the data layer.
Cryptographic Invisibility: Atsign’s Approach to Securing AI Applications
Atsign’s AI Architect aims to shield agentic software from attackers by rendering application identities invisible.
12 Questions That Expose Whether Your Security Program Is Actually Working
A roundup of hard questions CISOs should already be asking — about blast radius, nonhuman identities, and whether 'vibe coding' has eaten your attack surface.
