Windsurf Security: How to Use AI Coding Safely
Windsurf's Cascade agent gives developers autonomous code generation across multiple files, command execution, and agentic workflows—but this power creates new security challenges that traditional governance frameworks weren't designed to handle. With coding agents operating with extensive system access, organizations cannot see what agents access or control their actions without proper monitoring infrastructure. An LLM Proxy provides essential visibility and control over agent behavior, enabling enterprises to capture the productivity benefits of AI coding while maintaining security and compliance standards.
This article outlines actionable strategies for deploying Windsurf securely in enterprise environments, covering risk mitigation, governance frameworks, compliance requirements, and infrastructure deployment to ensure your AI coding workflows remain protected.
