    News The Hacker News19h ago3 sources

    AI is helping development teams produce far more code, far faster. But security teams still have to review vulnerabilities, manage dependencies, prioritize fixes, and control risk at human speed. When software output jumps 10 to 50 times, the problem is no longer just finding vulnerabilities. It is keeping security from becoming the bottleneck, or worse, losing control of what gets shipped.

  7. Devs to Anthropic, OpenAI, Cursor, and friends: Make security and privacy the default

    News The Register Security8 Aug2 sources

So researchers affiliated with York University and the University of Calgary in Canada decided to sift through developers' concerns about LLM-based integrated development environments (LIDEs) by analyzing Reddit discussions for common themes. Their findings suggest that the builders of such tools failed to prioritize security and privacy, leaving developers to defend themselves. Gias Uddin, associate professor at York University and a co-author of the…
