- 7The New Stack·7/30/2026securityAI-generated code forces a new platform security rethink
The article argues that widespread use of AI to write and review code is exposing gaps in current security practices across engineering organizations. Speakers at PlatformCon London said companies need stronger guardrails, better software bills of materials, and even AI bills of materials to track non-deterministic components and reduce supply-chain and compliance risks.
- 7The New Stack·7/9/2026securityCISA pushes deeper SBOM checks for hardened images
The article discusses updated 2025 CISA guidance saying SBOMs should include all components, including transitive dependencies, with no minimum depth, plus configuration files and fork lineage. It argues that security teams should validate hardened container images with quick “sniff tests” to catch incomplete inventories, improve vulnerability response, and reduce supply chain risk.
