With agentic AI further boosting productivity, human code review becomes a serious bottleneck. Developers need to move upstream, establishing the ground rules to ensure that AI plays by the rules. No matter how drastically artificial intelligence has changed the way software is created, human developers are still indispensable to the software development process. But the ways that humans contribute to that process are changing. Software creation is increasingly being handled by AI models, particularly as AI agents tapping into large language models (LLMs) take a more active role in code generation. Another accelerating innovation introduced by Anthropic in 2024 was…

The amazing community at MITRE recently published their list of the CWE Top 25 Most Dangerous Software Errors affecting the world in 2019. This list isn’t opinion-driven, it is the result of multi-faceted analysis utilizing the work of organizations like NIST, as well as publicized Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE®) data. In order to determine the “top” flaws, a score is attributed based on their severity, exploitability, and prevalence in current software. It’s not the kind of list that is going to win any positive accolades, that’s for sure. However, unlike the majority of annual wrap-ups, many of the entrants…
