Five things technology and security leaders must get right before shipping AI-generated code to production

By Nitin Dang – VP APAC, Middle East and Africa at Checkmarx

My conversations with security and engineering leaders across the region are changing. A year ago, the question was “how do we get our teams using AI to ship faster?” Today, it’s “we’ve been shipping AI-generated code for months now what?” Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, agentic coding assistants writing entire pull requests that often go live with little to no human review; this is production reality, not a pilot project. In fact, our Future of AppSec research found that while 96% of developers have security tools available right in their IDE, only 18% actually use them.

And a meaningful share of the code running mission-critical systems across APAC was never read line-by-line by a human before it went live.

I don’t think that’s a reason to panic. But I do think it’s a reason to get five things right when...
