Summary

Snyk has released an ebook titled "Taming AI Code: Securing GenAI Development with Snyk" to address the challenges of securing AI-generated code. The rise in AI tools and AI-generated code is changing developer workflows, enabling them to focus on more complex tasks. However, this shift also poses significant risks for security teams, as 96% of developers use AI coding assistants to streamline their work. GenAI tools like ChatGPT and Copilot are prevalent in developer workflows, but without proper guardrails, AppSec teams will struggle to meet demands while prioritizing security. Snyk's solution, Snyk Code, enables teams to implement a developer-first approach to code security, integrating directly into the IDE for real-time scanning and fixing vulnerabilities without slowing production or interrupting developer workflow. Snyk Code also addresses the challenges of securing AI-generated code using AI-powered tools like DeepCodeAI and DeepCode AI Fix, offering enhanced productivity and security while balancing speed and accuracy.
