Don’t kill my Vibes - Simple Steps to Stay Secure when Vibe Coding

September 25, 2026 09:00 – 09:30 · 30 min Stage 4

What this session covers

The rise of vibe coding, AI-generated code, and low-/no-code tools is changing how software is built. Traditional DevSecOps assumptions (full code review, manual security gates, “shift left”) no longer cleanly apply yet prompting an LLM for “secure code” does not guarantee safe handling of data, correct auth logic, or secure outcomes in general.

This session will provide examples of how successful teams have addressed this issue and highlight the concept of using secure guardrails that notify (but don’t block) developers in their native workflow and promote the generation of secure code. Find out how to replace brittle security gates with automated guardrails, continuous checks and feedback loops that don’t slow developers. Attend to understand why security is becoming a question of intent and outcomes, not line-by-line code inspection.
