Security Risks in AI Coding Agents

AI coding agents have the same access as your engineers: file system, shell, databases, external services via MCP. This technical brief covers the risks observed in production deployments and how to address them.

  • Three risk categories: sensitive data exposure, unintended production changes, and MCP attack vectors
  • Gaps in existing security tools: EDR, SIEM, secrets management, and DLP systems
  • Mitigation strategies: agent monitoring, MCP gateways, sensitive data detection, behavioral baselines
