A few days ago I discovered a few security issues in one of the software we have developed.
I instantly decided to review the frontend and backend code with AI (used cursor and GitHub copilot)
It reported a dozen more issues which otherwise would have taken a few weeks to find.
We asked AI to generate code that will help the security providing rules informing about technology stack, coding guidelines, project structure and product description.
We got good recommendations, but couldn't implement the suggestions straightforward.
However, we took the advices and hand-coded the suggestions at all code files.
The entire exercise took a week for fairly large project.
As per my tech lead, it would have taken minimum 2 months.
Soniy works.
