While development teams look to make the most of GenAI’s undeniable benefits, we’d like to propose a four-point foundational framework that will allow security leaders to deploy AI coding tools and agents with a higher, more relevant standard of security best practices. It details exactly what enterprises can do to ensure safe, secure code development right now, and as agentic AI becomes an even bigger factor in the future.

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.

According to a recent report from Gartner, the rampant use of shadow AI and rogue automation is further fueling the proliferation of AI vulnerabilities. Gartner notes that 32% of IT workers using generative AI tools at work say they keep them hidden from cybersecurity teams. Combined with low-code/no-code platforms and vibe coding practices, the AI copilots are greatly expanding the enterprise attack surface.

For this article, we asked a central question for security and risk leaders: "What differentiates a policy that genuinely mitigates enterprise risk from one that exists primarily to demonstrate that the organization has acknowledged AI risk?"

Secure Code Warrior's Pieter Danhieux on Managing AI-Driven Development Risks

Developer Risk Management is a holistic and proactive approach to application security, focused on code contributors rather than within the bits and bytes of the application layer itself.

In this research paper, Secure Code Warrior co-founders, Pieter Danhieux and Dr. Matias Madou, Ph.D., along with expert contributors, Chris Inglis, Former US National Cyber Director (now Strategic Advisor to Paladin Capital Group), and Devin Lynch, Senior Director, Paladin Global Institute, will reveal key findings from over twenty in-depth interviews with enterprise security leaders including CISOs, a VP of Application Security, and software security professionals.
