AI coding tools are creating serious security risks in production, with one-in-five CISOs saying they've suffered major incidents because of AI-generated code .

US-based respondents were among the worst hit by AI-related flaws, with 43% of organizations reporting serious incidents, compared with just 20% in Europe.

This, the study noted, appears to be down to better prevention and oversight. For example, EU-based firms reported more “near misses” with AI-generated code than their US count
