Secure AI-Assisted Development

Ship faster with AI coding tools without shipping vulnerabilities, leaked secrets, or risky dependencies.

Start free — Why AI writes plausible code, not secure code

AI coding assistants make you faster. They also make it easy to ship a SQL injection, a leaked API key, or a malicious dependency at the same speed.

This course is for engineers who already use AI coding tools and want to use them without shipping vulnerabilities. The through-line is one rule: AI-generated code is a proposal, reviewed like any pull request, and understood before it ships. You will learn to spot the vulnerability classes these tools reproduce, keep secrets and proprietary code out of prompts, vet dependencies against hallucinated and typosquatted packages, and build a team workflow where scanners and human review keep a person accountable on the deploy path.

What you'll be able to do

  • Treat AI-generated code as untrusted until reviewed and understood
  • Spot the vulnerability classes generated code tends to reproduce
  • Keep secrets and proprietary code out of prompts and repositories
  • Vet dependencies and defend against hallucinated packages and prompt injection

Curriculum

Module 1: Why AI Code Needs a Security Mindset

Free

AI writes plausible code, not secure code. The foundation: what tends to go wrong, why secrets stay out of prompts, and why generated code is untrusted until reviewed.

Module 2: Common Vulnerabilities in AI-Generated Code

Premium

The vulnerability classes generated code reproduces most: injection, broken authorization, weak crypto and insecure defaults, and how to prompt for safer code.

  • Input validation and injection risks14 min
  • Authentication and authorization mistakes13 min
  • Insecure defaults, weak crypto, and secrets handling12 min
  • Prompting explicitly for secure code13 min

Module 3: Dependencies, Supply Chain, and Workflow

Premium

Hallucinated and typosquatted packages, vetting dependencies, prompt injection in agentic dev, and a secure-by-default team workflow with scanners and human review.

  • Slopsquatting: hallucinated and typosquatted packages14 min
  • Vetting dependencies and reading the supply chain13 min
  • Prompt injection and untrusted content in agentic dev15 min
  • A secure-by-default team workflow16 min
