In this CISO Tradecraft episode, host G Mark Hardy interviews Shahar Man of Backslash Security about the rapidly expanding attack surface created by AI-driven “vibe coding” tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and Copilot. Shahar explains how prompting is shifting software creation, affecting education and hiring, and pushing security “further left” to the prompt, agent, MCP, skills, and rules level. He discuss risks such as loss of source integrity, excessive permissions, prompt injection, data leaks, use of unauthorized tools or accounts, and the spread of coding beyond engineering to teams like marketing and finance. Shahar argues AppSec work will transform toward securing the “sausage factory” and describes Backslash’s approach: enterprise-wide visibility, component vetting, endpoint monitoring via a local proxy, guardrails and blocking, and forwarding alerts to SOC/SIEM, with deployments scaling to thousands of workstations.
