Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Software development has undergone a fundamental transformation as AI coding assistants redefine how software is built. Tasks that once required days now take hours, and complex systems are increasingly created by individuals rather than teams. This acceleration has introduced a hidden cost: security risks that accumulate quietly beneath polished, functional code. AI-generated outputs often appear correct and secure on the surface, yet frequently contain structural flaws such as outdated cryptographic practices, weak authorization controls, and overly permissive infrastructure. The common instinct to simply request secure code from an AI misses a critical reality. Security is not an added feature but the result of deliberate architectural thinking and informed design choices.This book builds this mindset from the ground up. It begins by challenging the illusion that security can be appended through prompts, reframing it instead as a continuous balance of risk, cost, and usability. It introduces practical threat modeling and emphasizes the importance of strict trust boundaries to defend against adversarial inputs. The discussion then moves into core engineering practices, covering least privilege, compartmentalization, secrets management, and the prevention of context leakage in modern workflows. It addresses common cryptographic mistakes generated by AI systems and explains how to select and apply secure primitives correctly. The book then expands to real-world systems, focusing on APIs, middleware, and distributed architectures where authorization flaws and verification gaps often arise. It establishes disciplined validation processes that combine automated analysis with human judgment. Finally, it explores the emerging risks of autonomous AI agents, presenting strategies such as minimal agency, sandboxing, and structured prompt design, alongside practical patterns for building secure AI-assisted workflows and end-to-end system hardening through realistic case studies.By the end of this book, you will have developed a rigorous and practical security mindset for the AI-driven era, enabling you to critically evaluate generated code, design systems with structural resilience, and guide AI tools toward outcomes that are not only efficient but fundamentally secure.What You Will Learn:Why AI coding assistants fail at security and precisely where to interveneHow to apply the core principles of security engineering to AI-generated codeHow to audit, test, and verify code generated by an AI toolHow to work securely at the frontier of agentic developmentWho It Is For:This book is for modern software developers who use AI coding assistants in their daily workflow and want to build secure systems without a formal background in security. It is designed for engineers at all levels, as well as data scientists, ML practitioners, and technical founders who are creating real-world applications with AI tools. No prior security expertise is required; only basic programming knowledge and experience working with AI-assisted development. This item is printed on demand.
