Former GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke has a new gig
"He'll focus on helping Apiiro develop new protections for AI-generated software code. As more AI coding tools churn out code, there's concern that this could make codebases more vulnerable to hacks and other cybersecurity risks. Dohmke said developers now often use multiple AI coding agents, and these tools don't necessarily know all the policies, rules, and safeguards that their employers have set up to ensure their codebases and broader technology offerings are secure."
"Apiiro has raised more than $100 million from investors, including General Catalyst, Greylock, and Kleiner Perkins. CEO Idan Plotnik has launched and sold other startups in the past and has served asa cybersecurity executive at Microsoft. Dohmke also comes from Microsoft, which owns GitHub. He said he met Plotnik about three years ago and was taken by the CEO's energy and Apiiro's mission."
Thomas Dohmke joined Apiiro as a strategic advisor to help develop protections for AI-generated software code. Apiiro connects with companies' code-management systems to provide contextual safeguards for AI code generation. Increasing use of AI coding tools raises concerns that codebases could become more vulnerable to hacks and other cybersecurity risks. Developers often use multiple AI coding agents that may not know employer policies, rules, and safeguards. Apiiro can spot and automatically fix issues in code to help developers comply with company guidelines without adding extra work. Apiiro has raised over $100 million and is led by CEO Idan Plotnik.
