We built 24 apps with AI. Three platforms. 561 vulnerabilities.
An experiment was conducted to evaluate the security of 24 apps built using AI across three platforms. The results revealed a total of 561 vulnerabilities, with 300 categorized as critical or high. The findings suggest that while AI can rapidly generate applications, the default settings often lead to significant security flaws.
- ▪The experiment involved building 24 apps across eight categories using three AI platforms.
- ▪A total of 561 vulnerabilities were found, with 300 being critical or high.
- ▪Only one app scanned with zero findings, while the others had between six and forty-six vulnerabilities each.
