Overview
AI coding assistants are rapidly changing how software is built, but they are also introducing new forms of application risk and technical debt. In this interview, John Strait examines how organizations are adopting AI-generated code, the impact on software quality and vulnerability management, and the growing challenge of balancing development speed with secure coding practices. The conversation also explores governance gaps, remediation limitations, and the blind spots many CISOs still have around application security in the age of AI-assisted development.
