AI can also introduce open-source packages at a pace your security team was never built to handle. More dependencies mean more vulnerabilities to review, more remediation work, and a backlog that can quietly keep growing.<\/p>\n<p>Our latest <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thehacker.news\/ai-coding-risk\" target=\"_blank\">AI Coding and Open Source Risk<\/a> webinar<\/strong> examines what this means for security and engineering teams, drawing on data from 300 enterprise leaders.<\/p>\n<h2>The Real Problem Is What AI Adds to Your Stack<\/h2>\n<p>AI coding itself is not the issue. The problem is how quickly generated code can bring new open-source components into your environment.<\/p>\n<p>A developer can add a dependency in minutes. Your team may then need to assess vulnerabilities, licensing, maintenance, ownership, and whether that package should be there at all.<\/p>\n<p>That work does not disappear just because the code was generated faster. Over time, you end up with remediation debt: security work accumulating faster than your team can close it.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"more\"\/><\/p>\n<p>And as AI tools become more autonomous, that gap could widen significantly.<\/p>\n<h2>See How Your Program Compares<\/h2>\n<p>ActiveState surveyed <strong>300 security and engineering leaders<\/strong> across technology, financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, and government.<\/p>\n<p>The research examines how teams are handling AI-driven open-source risk, where remediation programs are struggling, and how that debt relates to audit failures, breach frequency, and lost productivity.<\/p>\n<p>This <a href=\"https:\/\/thehacker.news\/ai-coding-risk\" target=\"_blank\">webinar walks through those findings<\/a> so you can compare your own program with what other enterprises are seeing.<\/p>\n<p>That benchmark matters. It gives you a clearer sense of whether your current controls are keeping up or simply pushing more unresolved work downstream.<\/p>\n<h2>What You\u2019ll Take Away<\/h2>\n<p>ActiveState&#8217;s Rebecca Banks and Moris Chen break down:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How AI coding is changing open-source remediation workloads<\/li>\n<li>How your program compares with 300 enterprise peers<\/li>\n<li>Where remediation debt starts affecting security and business outcomes<\/li>\n<li>Which governance models are working today<\/li>\n<li>Which approaches may create more problems than they solve<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is not another session telling you that AI creates risk. It is a practical look at what the risk is becoming, how other organizations are dealing with it, and where your current process may need to change before AI-generated code scales further.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thehacker.news\/ai-coding-risk\" target=\"_blank\">Watch the AI Coding and Open Source Risk webinar<\/a> to see what the data shows and how enterprise teams are responding.<\/p>\n<div class=\"cf note-b\">Found this article interesting? <span class=\"\">This article is a contributed piece from one of our valued partners.<\/span> Follow us on <a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/publications\/CAAqLQgKIidDQklTRndnTWFoTUtFWFJvWldoaFkydGxjbTVsZDNNdVkyOXRLQUFQAQ\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Google News<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/thehackersnews\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/thehackernews\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LinkedIn<\/a> to read more exclusive content we post.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ue804The Hacker News\ue802Aug 24, 2026AI Security \/ Webinar If your developers are using AI coding tools, you are probably already seeing the upside: faster development, more code, and less time&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2501,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[10,425,3135,1422,1445,2975,2976],"class_list":["post-2500","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-code","tag-control","tag-debt","tag-remediation","tag-secure","tag-shipping","tag-watch"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thedigitalfortress.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2500","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thedigitalfortress.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thedigitalfortress.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thedigitalfortress.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thedigitalfortress.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2500"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/thedigitalfortress.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2500\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thedigitalfortress.us\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2501"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thedigitalfortress.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2500"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thedigitalfortress.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2500"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thedigitalfortress.us\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2500"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
