AI has changed how software is written. Security hasn’t caught up — until now. Developers no longer code alone. AI copilots generate functions, flows, and entire services in seconds. That speed introduces a new class of risk: vulnerable code created faster than traditional AppSec can scan, triage, or fix. Checkmarx Developer Assist introduces a new model: agentic application security. Instead of running scans after the fact, Developer Assist works like a security linter inside your IDE & Pre-Commit: - Reasons about code as it’s written (human or AI-generated) - Flags real issues with context, not noise - Delivers explainable, safe refactors directly in the editor - Keeps developers in flow while protecting the business This is security built for vibe coding, AI IDEs, and the Agentic Development Life Cycle (ADLC). We’re excited to share the early version with the community and learn from developers building the future of software 🚀 Use the free trial to experience the new Agent within your favorite AI IDE!
