Executive Brief: Questions AI is Creating that Security Can’t Answer Today

This executive brief explains how widespread AI-assisted coding breaks traditional AppSec audit assumptions by generating code at the developer endpoint, creating gaps in visibility, policy enforcement, control timing, and traceability. It outlines the key audit questions emerging around AI usage, governance, enforcement, and evidence, and argues for a pre-commit governance model that enforces policies and collects audit evidence at generation time. Leading teams shift controls to the endpoint, maintain continuous audit readiness, and track outcome-focused metrics, positioning themselves to meet evolving compliance expectations.
