It's being explored in organizations from startups to large tech companies, where the appeal lies in speed and ease: describe what you want, and the machine generates the code. But this emerging approach is raising significant concerns, particularly in security circles.Izar, who co-hosts the Security Table podcast with Matt Coles and Chris Romeo, calls attention to the deeper implications of vibe coding. At the heart of his concern is the risk of ignoring past lessons. Generating code through AI may feel like progress, but without understanding what's being written or how it fits into the broader architecture, teams risk reintroducing old vulnerabilities—at scale.One major issue: the assumption that code generated by AI is inherently good or secure. Izar challenges that notion, reminding listeners that today's coding models function like junior developers—they may produce working code, but they're also prone to mistakes, hallucinations, and a lack of contextual understanding. Worse yet, organizations may begin to skip traditional checks like code reviews and secure development lifecycles, assuming the machine already got it right.Sean highlights a potential opportunity—if used wisely, vibe coding could allow developers to focus more on outcomes and user needs, rather than syntax and structure. But even he acknowledges that, without collaboration and proper feedback loops, it's more of a one-way zone than a true jam session between human and machine.Together, Sean and Izar explore whether security leaders are aware of vibe-coded systems running in their environments—and how they should respond. Their advice: assume you already have vibe-coded components in play, treat that code with the same scrutiny as anything else, and don't trust blindly. Review it, test it, threat model it, and hold it to the same standards.Tune in to hear how this new style of development is reshaping conversations about security, responsibility, and collaboration in software engineering.⬥SPONSORS⬥LevelBlue: https://itspm.ag/attcybersecurity-3jdk3ThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974⬥RESOURCES⬥Inspiring LinkedIn Post — https://www.linkedin.com/posts/izartarandach_sigh-vibecoding-when-will-we-be-able-activity-7308105048926879744-fNMSSecurity Table Podcast: Vibe Coding: What Could Possibly Go Wrong? — https://securitytable.buzzsprout.com/2094080/episodes/16861651-vibe-coding-what-could-possibly-go-wrongWebinar: Secure Coding = Developer Power, An ITSPmagazine Webinar with Manicode Security — https://www.crowdcast.io/c/secure-coding-equals-developer-power-how-to-convince-your-boss-to-invest-in-you-an-itspmagazine-webinar-with-manicode-security-ad147fba034a⬥ADDITIONAL INFORMATION⬥✨ More Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast:

In episode one of the Threat Modeling podcast, host Chris Romeo explores various definitions of threat modeling gathered from industry experts. The podcast discusses whether risk assessment and threat modeling are the same, the essence of threat modeling, collaboration and documentation, identifying and mitigating threats early, the Five W's and an H approach, structured brainstorming, and proactive security. The Threat Modeling Manifesto's definition is favored by Chris, which states that threat modeling is "analyzing representations of a system to highlight concerns about security and privacy characteristics." In addition, the podcast highlights that threat modeling involves art, science, collaboration, and brainstorming, aiming to improve security and privacy in systems.

On this podcast, we'll journey together into the world of threat modeling. On this journey, we'll learn the history of threat modeling, hear from influential folks, explore the available methodologies and tools, and have fun. My name is Chris Romeo, and I've been threat modeling my entire 25+ year career in security. In addition, I host other podcasts, including the Application Security Podcast and the Security Table. The AppSec Podcast is an interview format where my co-host Robert Hurlbut and I deconstruct world-class application security performers to find the tools, tactics, and tricks listeners can use. The Security Table is a round table with three of my friends, where we explore and discuss/debate various issues impacting the world of cybersecurity. This podcast is different. This podcast is my journey to understand a subject I know about. I aim to achieve a more profound understanding by breaking threat modeling down to its fundamental pieces and explaining them to you. They say the best way to understand a topic is to study and teach it, so here we go. After laying the foundation, we'll return to the starting point for threat modeling and understand the history. From there, I'll talk to various experts in the field to break down what they think threat modeling is and ask them to teach me something new that I need to learn about the topic. Please subscribe, continue to tune in as we go on this threat modeling journey together, and remember to threat model all the things.

For this week's episode of the Hedge, Tom Ammon and Russ White are joined by Chris Romeo to talk about the importance of the human element in threat modeling. If you've ever wondered about the importance of threat modeling or how to get started in threat modeling, this episode will guide you on your way.

DevOps is having this awesome successful party and we want in! We've tried inserting ourselves in the middle (DevSecOps) and we launched a pre-party (shift left), but they still don't like us. This episode is hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), producer of CISO Series and founder of Spark Media Solutions and Mike Johnson.

On this week’s episode Are we making the situation better or worse? What makes a successful phish? On Sophos' blog Paul Ducklin writes about their most successful phishing emails. Ducklin noted that most of the successful phishes dealt with mundane and undramatic issues that still had a sense of importance. Looking at these examples they do seem to follow a similar pattern of something looking official that is being requested from the company and could you click here to check it out. Is that the majority of what you're testing? If so, what exactly is the value in conducting phishing tests on employees? Can the testing have a negative effect in security or even morale? There’s got to be a better way to handle this What is the right approach to threat modeling? In a blog post, Chris Romeo of Security Journey opines that formal training or tools won't work. Security needs to ask questions of developers about features and then show them how a threat evolves, thus allowing them to ultimately do it themselves. Adam Shostack of Shostack and Associates advocates for formal training. He says Romeo's informal approach to threat modeling sounds attractive, but doesn't work because you're trying to scale threat modeling across developers and if you tell one developer the information it's going to be passed down like a game of telephone where each successive person tells a distorted version of what the last person said. So what's the right approach to building threat models across a DevOps environment? What's Worse?! What's the worst place to find your company assets? Close your eyes and visualize the perfect engagement Shifting Left. DevSecOps, These are the mechanisms that have been used to infuse security into the DevOps supply chain. While noble, both concepts break the philosophy and structure of DevOps which is based on automation, speed, and delivery. But, DevOps is also about delivering quality. So rather than inserting themselves, how does security participate in a way that DevOps already loves? If you haven’t made this mistake, you’re not in security On AskNetSec on reddit, Triffid-oil asked, "What was something that you spent effort learning and later realized that it was never going to be useful?" And let me add to that, it's something either someone told you or you believed for some reason it was critical for your cybersecurity education and you later realized it wasn't valuable at all.

Application security applies to everyone, network architects included. Chris had an opportunity to join a friend's Podcast called "The Hedge." Chris talks with hosts Tom and Russ about the state of security and what network engineers need to know about security from an application perspective. They talk about the importance of empathy in all jobs, [...] The post Chris Romeo — The State of Security and the Importance of Empathy appeared first on Security Journey Podcasts.

We all know, whether from experience or just intuitively, that bolting security on an IoT product after much of the development has been completed is a total rookie mistake and a recipe for disaster. Yet this still happens. By crowdfunded startups who don't mention security in their videos, to internal teams in larger enterprises who also emphasize the bling in order to get their project greenlit from within. In this episode of the IoT Business Show, I speak with Chris Romeo about the Security Development Lifecycle, the polar opposite to the bolt-on, that's been successfully used in IT security for years.

People we don't even know are telling us we have them on the latest episode of CISO/Security Vendor Relationship Podcast. This episode is hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), producer of CISO Series and founder of Spark Media Solutions and Mike Johnson. Our guest this week is Fredrick Lee (AKA "Flee") (@fredrickl), CSO of Gusto. Effective vulnerability prioritization helps you answer three questions: Where should we prioritize based on risk?

Learn more: tenable.com/predictive-prioritization. What's a CISO to do? Chris Romeo, CEO of Security Journey, wrote a post where he asked, "What if I had to develop an application security program with a budget of zero dollars?" What he presented was a means to lean on the OWASP open source community and tools to build an application security program. You're a CISO, what's your take on this? I was chatting with a pentester, Benjamin McEwan, from Scotland, who reaches out to CISOs trying to responsibly disclose, not expose, a credible security vulnerability.
