Watch Now

Explore how the rise of AI-assisted development is reshaping the way organizations manage software dependencies and security. As developers increasingly rely on AI coding tools and open source components to accelerate software delivery, the volume and complexity of dependencies grows rapidly, creating new challenges for risk management and governance. The webinar examines why traditional, manual security processes struggle to keep up with these faster development cycles and introduces the concept of autonomous security, an approach that embeds intelligent automation and policy-driven controls directly into the development lifecycle. By aligning automated security practices with AI-driven development workflows, organizations can improve visibility into their software supply chain, manage dependency risk more effectively, and maintain secure, high-velocity software delivery.
