Banks risk repeating DevOps sprawl as DIY agentic AI pushes build costs above USD $1.4 million and delays production by up to 18 months.
The update aims to cut review bottlenecks by auto-fixing vulnerable dependencies and surfacing code flaws scanners often miss.
Adoption of AI is exposing firms to weaker controls, hidden tools and traceability gaps as executives urge tighter governance.
Without stronger operational foundations, Asia Pacific firms risk turning new security tools into costly bottlenecks instead of productivity gains.
