platforms, CI/CD pipelines, and other tools is the final step in making security enforcement a continuous,
integrated function.

Preparing for the Future

Ultimately, the debate isn't about whether vibe coding is good or bad. And it’s not about adding personnel
to bridge the growing divide between developers and application security professionals. The real question
is how we can adapt our tools, habits, and culture to make sure that tomorrow's software is both
groundbreaking and secure without sacrificing robust protection. The broader sentiment around AI's
benefits in software development continues to evolve, but let's be clear: embracing innovation means
proactively adapting our security approach.

To mitigate these risks, organizations should focus on education, better tools, and building a culture
where security is everyone's responsibility. Leveraging a native AI application security platform that
provides features like AI Code Security Assistants can further enhance these efforts. By making security
an integral part of the development process, companies can fully embrace the advantages of vibe coding
while protecting their applications from new and evolving threats.
