AI assistants are now an everyday reality for many development teams, writing code and creating rapid proof of concepts. However, this has created security issues due to the speed of production and extra vulnerabilities.
Velocity gains are being negated by the need to check this code. Whilst AI assistants do provide initial vulnerability detection, they are not core security tools.
In this report, Gartner examines this pressing issue and how the solution can be found in AI itself and the automation of security.
