Insights from experts shaping secure development

Zurzeit sind nur 15 Prozent der Entwickler der Meinung, dass jeder für sichere Codepraktiken verantwortlich sein sollte. In einer Welt zunehmender Sicherheitsbedrohungen reicht das einfach nicht aus. Es muss etwas getan werden. Ein Schlüssel zur Schaffung einer gesunden AppSec-Kultur ist das Verständnis der wichtigsten Einflüsse (und Influencer!) im Spiel.

Wir müssen einen von Menschen geleiteten Ansatz für bewährte Cybersicherheitsmethoden stärken, und das wird zu besseren Ergebnissen führen, als wenn wir uns stark auf Automatisierung, Tools und Reaktionen auf Probleme verlassen, die bereits eingebettet und entdeckt wurden.

Unsicherer Code kostet Unternehmen Millionen — was ist also die Einführung sicherer Codierungspraktiken im Weg? In einer Welt, die fast alles auf Software angewiesen ist, ist es von wesentlicher Bedeutung, sicherzustellen, dass der Code sicher ist. The call of the market and the financial rentability has from. Aber es gibt viele Bedenken in Bezug auf sichere Codierung — und viele Hindernisse stehen ihrer vollständigen und effektiven Einführung im Weg. More as you before is an new work process required.

Kamer van Koophandel shares how it embedded secure coding into everyday development through role-based certifications, Trust Score benchmarking, and a culture of shared security ownership.

See how Paysafe's partnership with Secure Code Warrior led to a 45% boost in developer productivity and a major reduction in code vulnerabilities.

DigitalOcean's use of Secure Code Warrior training has significantly reduced security debt, allowing teams to focus more on innovation and productivity. The improved security has strengthened their product quality and competitive edge. Looking ahead, the SCW Trust Score will help them further enhance security practices and continue driving innovation.

How big a threat does agentic AI pose to businesses currently? And what should security leaders be doing to address the risk?

My co-founder and CTO, Matias Madou, Ph.D., and I consulted our crystal ball (or should that be our NVIDIA GPUs?), and this is what we believe 2026 has in store for us from an AI security perspective.

An alleged nation-state attacker used Claude Code and a range of tools in the developer ecosystem, namely Model Context Protocol (MCP) systems, to almost autonomously target specific companies with benign open-source hacking tools at scale. Of the over thirty attacks, several were successful, and proved that AI agents could indeed execute large-scale, malicious tasks with little to no human intervention. Maybe it’s time we went a little slower, stopped to reflect on what is at stake here, and how best to defend ourselves.
