What application security (AppSec) is, why it matters, the core testing types (SAST, DAST, SCA), how it fits the SDLC, the OWASP Top 10 (2025) and best practices.

What AI code review does well, where it's blind on security, and how to pair it with SAST and human review in a solid PR-gate workflow.

How AI enters your CI/CD pipeline and how to gate it — shift-left scanning, SAST/SCA/DAST, policy-as-code, and provenance for AI-authored changes.

A phase-by-phase walk through how AI is used in the software development lifecycle, from requirements to maintenance — with the security angle at the end.

How AI generates and maintains tests, expands coverage, and prioritizes what to run — plus where human judgment and secure testing still matter.
