Visibility, governance, and preemptive code security controls enable innovative organizations to accelerate application development while boosting security
Las Vegas, NV, July 31, 2025 - Backslash Security, the vibe coding security company, today announced that its platform for securing AI coding infrastructure and code will be shown at the AI Pavilion (booth #4312) at Black Hat USA in Las Vegas, August 6-7.
Since the beginning of this year, vibe coding has been growing in parallel with the unprecedented adoption of AI-powered Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) and AI coding agents. Third-party components like MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers have likewise gained momentum in the software development market in a short time.
However, over the past several months, Backslash researchers have uncovered multiple security gaps and weaknesses in common vibe coding stacks and the code they create. When left unchecked, this presents a significant risk to the enterprises that develop these applications, as well as their users:
The Backslash Vibe Coding Security Platform enables security teams to quickly understand and mitigate these potential threats, allowing developers to focus on innovation and time to market, with security risks being transparently monitored and controlled without slowing them down. It includes:
"AI coding is now a reality with many organizations adopting tools such as Cursor, Windsurf, and GitHub CoPilot, among others, but the rapid introduction and adoption of these tools are creating new security blindspots," said Fernando Montenegro, Vice President & Practice Lead, Cybersecurity & Resilience at The Futurum Group. "Getting ahead of this trend and adapting to the ultra-rapid way of developing software should become a priority for security teams, so they can enable innovation within their organizations while adequately managing risk."
Backslash Security will be at the AI Pavilion booth #4312 at Black Hat USA, August 6-7.
