Lots of things upside down these days.

Thanks, @ShaneMcLaughlin.

[Checkmarx @Checkmarx]

Software used to be predictable. Then the Upside Down showed up.

Today’s apps are sprawling ecosystems of AI-generated code, open-source dependencies, and hidden risk, where security issues can slip in quietly and spread fast.

This post looks at why developers are becoming the new defenders, and why AppSec has to evolve if it wants to keep up. https://t.co/nvyP0Tpn7P

@Checkmarx @AWS thanks for @JonathanRende! Great talk.

[Checkmarx @Checkmarx]

🚀Record-breaking growth. Industry recognition. Game-changing innovation.

[Ann Boyd @annb]

A balance of rewards and risks...the realities of #AI.

[Checkmarx @Checkmarx]

Every wave of innovation—dot-com, cloud, mobile—brought both breakthroughs and new risks. AI-assisted development is no different.

Our CEO, @sandeepjohri, shared with @Forbes’ Tony Bradley why securing software at the same pace it’s created is critical to avoiding multiplied vulnerabilities at scale.

At Checkmarx, we’re meeting this moment with AI-driven security agents embedded directly in the developer workflow, so teams can move fast and stay secure.
