AI-generated Code Is Shipping to Production. Is Your AppSec Pipeline Ready for What Comes Next?
Eighty-one percent of organizations knowingly shipped vulnerable code in the past year. That number is about to get harder to manage. AI-assisted coding tools are accelerating output across engineering teams, and Gartner projects that by 2027, at least 30% of AppSec exposures will result from AI-driven "vibe coding" practices. The code patterns are different, the release cadences are faster, and the security assumptions baked into traditional testing tooling were not built for what AI produces. Organizations are deploying AI-generated code at a pace that outstrips their ability to review it.
The challenge is not whether to allow AI-generated code. That decision has already been made by most engineering teams, with or without security's blessing. Addressing this requires rethinking how static and dynamic testing, software supply chain security, runtime protection, API security, and developer-native tooling work together across an AI-accelerated pipeline. Security teams that do not adapt their tooling and processes now will spend the next two years in reactive mode.
Topics include:
- New vulnerability patterns introduced by AI-generated and AI-assisted code
- Adapting AppSec pipelines to handle accelerated release cycles without creating bottlenecks
- Securing the AI-driven software supply chain, from dependencies and secrets to runtime behavior
Explore how AppSec teams are retooling their programs to keep pace with AI-accelerated development before the gap becomes unmanageable.
