Insights from experts shaping secure development

人工智能辅助开发已不在眼前——它就在这里，它正在迅速重塑软件的编写方式。GitHub Copilot、Cline、Roo、Cursor、Aider和Windsurf等工具正在将开发人员转变为自己的副驾驶，从而加快迭代速度，加速从原型设计到重大重构项目的所有工作。

When reflecting on our own technology, SCW’s Developer Risk Management platform, I am buoyed by recent metrics from one of our core enterprise clients, and going down the proverbial rabbit hole into this data tells a tale of a high-adoption, potent Secure by Design initiative that has been proven to considerably reduce risk in their organization.

Secure Code Warrior很高兴地宣布我们与进攻性安全解决方案领导者HackerOne进行了新的整合。我们正在共同建立一个强大的综合生态系统。HackerOne 查明了现实环境中漏洞实际发生的位置，暴露了安全问题的 “内容” 和 “在哪里”。

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.

AI is now a key piece of modern software development. More than four out of five developers use AI coding tools daily or weekly – with many relying on multiple tools in parallel. Teams must understand where automation ends, and where accountability begins.

Secure code should be grounded more in concepts like secure by default and secure by design than by “spot the vuln” thinking. Matias Madou shares his experience in secure coding training and the importance of teaching critical thinking. He also discusses why critical thinking is so closely related to threat modeling and how LLMs can be a tool for helping developers get beyond the superficial advice of, “Think like an attacker.”

Organizations are at an inflection point driven by the explosive adoption of AI, which promises significant changes in how businesses operate. That leaves CISOs on unsteady ground. As the gatekeepers of their organization’s data and access, they must ensure the security of the enterprise. However, the prospects of a headlong charge into wide-ranging, and possibly unchecked, use of AI could create a flood of security issues that many CISOs, under their current organizational structures, aren’t equipped to handle.
