As generative AI revolutionizes how we write software, it’s also reshaping how we secure it. Tools like GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT now allow developers to write functional applications with just a few prompts. This growing trend, dubbed “vibe coding,” represents a fundamental shift in development philosophy: developers rely on AI-generated code and focus more on ideas than implementation. This unlocks speed and creativity, but it also exposes new and serious security risks.

Microsoft has now launched the public preview of the Azure DevOps Model Context Provider (MCP) Server in a brave attempt to change developer productivity. With this newly introduced capability, GitHub Copilot in Agent Mode can directly access a developer’s Azure DevOps project data and allow the developer to interact with its data and functions via the natural language commands provided by the Copilot, within the developer’s coding environment, such as Visual Studio Code or Visual Studio.

Empower your developers with GitGuardian's new MCP Server. Embed AI-driven secrets security directly into your IDE, streamline incident remediation, and secure code in real time.

IoT and unmanaged devices are some of the toughest blind spots for security teams today, and attackers know it. That’s why we’re excited to team up with Armis — an expert in device discovery and risk assessment — to bring its real-time device data right into Elastic Security. By combining Armis’s rich telemetry with Elastic Security’s analytics, ES|QL querying, and Elastic AI Assistant, analysts get the full picture of their device landscape.

*According to Gartner, by 2026, over 80% of enterprises will have used generative AI APIs or deployed GenAI-enabled applications, up from less than 5% in 2023. This rapid adoption introduces a new and complex attack surface. The adoption of artificial intelligence is no longer an option, it’s an operational inevitability.

As the world becomes more interconnected, the nature of national security is evolving, bringing new challenges and opportunities in cyberspace. It’s no longer just about physical borders—it’s about digital infrastructure, critical assets, and public-private partnerships, with businesses of all sizes impacted by these changes in strategic cybersecurity.
