Vulnerabilities Included - Vibe Coding Security
Computers are an integral part of our lives.
They manage our bank accounts.
They power the grids that light our cities.
Remote work.
Messaging.
Dating.
In the core - there is code.
Structures of instructions for the computer.
Vibe Coding?
You say it normally as a human.
AI translates it to the machine.
But does it really understand you?
The Operator And The Assistant
You know the logic.
You understand the requirement.
AI knows only what you share with it.
When your prompt is vague - your Assistant guesses the rest.
When you over-share - your Assistant chokes on data.
AI doesn't write code - it models it for you.
You are the Operator.
AI is your Assistant.
"The blade is sharp, but only you decide where it cuts."

The Noise
AI is fast, tactical and comfortable.
But it is trained on human data.
On their mistakes.
On their wrong choices.
On their bad tools.
And on their security issues.
Vulnerabilities included… by default.
The Assistant drafts.
You sharpen the code.
Or can you?
The Echo
You ask.
AI delivers.
The readiness feels like power.
But the delivery is messy.
The light is flickering.
The code sometimes works.
Sometimes it needs realignment.
Calibration.
A new direction.
A new prompt.
You can do it.
Right?
Signal Distortion
You asked.
AI delivered.
The code is baked.
It runs.
It works.
It is ready.
Or is it?
- Web forms
- Password fields
- File uploads
- Database queries
- URL mappings
You call it interactive.
The Ghost calls it exposure.
Did you ask AI to harden these doors?
Did you ask it to follow standards?
Did you prompt for OWASP Top Ten?
Would you let a tool manage your money with your code?
Think it again.
The Signal
AI can't write tools.
It doesn't know the logic.
AI writes code snippets.
Fragments of tools.
Models.
The Operator - you- stitches them together.
You read the code line by line.
You review it.
You understand it.
Make sure there is no security flaw.
No exposure.
No mistake.
Sometimes AI offers non-existent libraries.
It can hallucinate fake data.
You are the Operator.
You must keep the order.

Speed.
Reduced "time-to-market".
Complex solved with simple.
Soft. Comfortable. Then…
The dream ends: black daemons rise.
Market loss…
Reputation damage…
Public shame…
Peace to war.
The Whisper
AI as an Assistant is strong.
Human and machine are allies.
The future is set.
Cut the noise.
Strengthen the signal.
- Work in small bursts. Don't choke your Assistant.
- Write clear, direct sentences.
- Ask for security. Safety. Stability.
- Re-read. Check. Test.
- Don't bake sensitive data into the code.
- In doubt - ask a ghost. They help you.
Sharpen your blade before the strike.
Or let it be sharpened - if you don't know how to do it.
The future is here.
You live it.
Read. Educate yourself. Emerge.
