When code is written by AI, secure defaults must be the foundation, not a feature Vibe coding has changed how software gets built.
Tools like v0 make it possible to turn ideas into working prototypes in seconds.
Anthropic's CEO predicts 90% of code will be AI-generated in 3-6 months .
Adoption is accelerating fast, and for many builders, we're already there.
But here's the uncomfortable truth: The faster you build, the more risk you create Last week, a viral app leaked 72k selfies and government IDs .
This wasn’t a hack or advanced malware.
It was caused by default settings, misused variables, and the absence of guardrails.

Leaked secrets, unsafe defaults and misconfigured access are no longer rare mistakes.
They are the default without intervention.
