347: Application Security in the Age of Agentic AI Development (With Eran Kinsbruner of Checkmarx)
Traditional AppSec tools were created with the assumption that humans wrote code and security reviewed it afterward. But when AI generates code continuously and autonomously, at a speed no traditional security process can keep up with, vulnerabilities spread long before a scanner ever runs. Risk is compounding while security struggles to catch up.
In this episode, Dave Rubinstein speaks with Eran Kinsbruner, vice president of marketing at AppSec company Checkmarx. Among the topics discussed are:
-- Why traditional AppSec tools can't keep pace with AI-generated code
-- The need to ensure security from the beginning of the project
-- How the SDLC is morphing into assn ADLC -- Agentic Development Life Cycle
