Today, I’m joined by Eitan Worcel, CEO and co-founder of Mobb — an AI Security Assistant that fixes vulnerabilities. With over 15 years of experience in the application security field, Eitan has worn many hats, including developer, product management leader, and now startup founder.

Eitan has also shared his expertise at events such as Black Hat, BSides Las Vegas, and OWASP chapter meetings, where he discussed the application of AI in security and the relationships between developers and security teams.

In today’s episode, we explore whether all bad code should be fixed, the role of AI in code remediation, the challenges developers face in addressing vulnerabilities, and the critical importance of maintaining software quality.

We also touch on the evolution of security tools and their impact on developers' workflows.Dive right in!
