AI & Data Security: Insights From IBM’s Chief Architect
IBM’s Chief Architect Devan Shah outlines how the company’s OnePipeline platform now supports over 450 developers by shifting from Travis CI to Tekton and Argo CD, trading longer build times for automated security scans. He details the internal AI coding assistant “Bob,” which relies on contextual rule files and LLM‑driven code reviews to keep AI‑generated code compliant and maintainable. Shah warns of the "Crown Jewels In, Crown Jewels Out" risk, promoting Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) to discover shadow data and enforce encryption. Finally, he advocates a "Bare Minimum 15" checklist and just‑in‑time token provisioning to safely scale agentic AI workflows.
