New newsletter alert. 👀 Welcome to Inside the AI-DLC. AI is taking on more of the development lifecycle. AI-DLC is where developers get practical guidance for building secure software in an AI-driven world. First up: We’re discussing OpenAI’s Dots, agent-generated fixes, and why a “fixed” vulnerability still needs security scanning, testing, and human review. Read the first edition and subscribe to follow along: linkedin.com/pulse/can-dots-…

Big news from Checkmarx! 🚀 We’re excited to share that we’ve acquired @TromzoSecurity - an AI-native AppSec innovator built to help developers ship faster and safer through intelligent triage and automation. This accelerates a new era of Agentic Application Security, where AI doesn’t just speed up coding, it continuously understands your changes, reasons about risk, and automates what used to slow you down.

If half of Americans don’t have the right to determine what happens to their own bodies, then there is no “liberty and justice” for all. Those words we teach our children in school have no meaning. There is no democracy without bodily autonomy.

There are two kinds of problems: strong-link problems and weak-link problems. Weak-link: quality depends on how good the *worst* things are Strong-link: quality depends on how good the *best* things are
