Securing Vibe Coding Tools: Scaling Productivity Without Scaling Risk

The article discusses the risks associated with vibe coding (AI-assisted development), where AI tools can generate functional code rapidly but often neglect security controls, leading to vulnerabilities. It introduces the SHIELD framework (Separation of Duties, Human in the Loop, Input/Output Validation, Enforce Security-Focused Helper Models, Least Agency, Defensive Technical Controls) as a method to implement governance and scale productivity without increasing risk.
