US District Court Decision in AI’s Favor Worries Open-Source Developers
A federal appeals court handed GitHub, Microsoft, and OpenAI an important win in the first major appellate ruling over how AI coding tools can use open-source code. As we all know, all the AI code-generating programs learned their lessons largely from open-source code. So a group of anonymous open-source plaintiffs argued that GitHub Copilot and […]
StackHawk Delivers Wingman to Fix Vulnerabilities as Developers Write Code
StackHawk this week launched Wingman, an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that makes it possible for application developers to automatically fix vulnerability issues as code is being written. Wingman is designed to install into Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Codex, and Antigravity. It scans the live application, interprets findings, and fixes vulnerabilities in a way that […]
Why AI Agents Shouldn’t Guess at Vulnerability Exploitability
Vulnerability prioritization is not a language problem. The safest agent architectures use models to interpret and explain, while deterministic systems traverse the evidence. Ask a security team a simple question: Of the vulnerabilities your scanner reported this morning, which ones can actually be exploited in production? The honest answer is often that nobody knows yet, […]

Observability 2.0: Why DevOps Teams Are Moving From Monitoring to Intelligent System Understanding
For a long time, monitoring just meant staring at dashboards and waiting for something to flash red. Engineers tracked things like CPU usage, memory, response times, error rates, and uptime. If a number crossed a certain line, you’d get an alert. Then, someone dived in to figure out what was wrong. That basic approach isn’t […]
JFrog CEO: No One Cares About Source Code Anymore

GitOps in 2026: Why Pull Requests Are Taking Over Cloud Operations
For years, cloud infrastructure changes were mostly a mystery. An engineer would log into a dashboard, tweak a setting, run a few scripts, and that was it. Nobody worried until something broke. Suddenly, everyone wanted answers. Who changed this? Was it tested? Can we fix it? How did production end up out of sync with […]
