In the AI Age, Bug Scans
Aren't Security

Ecommerce is where real money moves every day.
That's why it gets targeted.

In the AI age, AI didn't invent new attackers.
It made them faster.

They can generate scripts, tweak payloads, and run thousands of variations in the time it takes a team to open a ticket.
Incidents don't just happen more often. They arrive sooner.

If you're still running the old model — SCAN -> LIST BUGS -> FIX BUGS — you'll always be one beat behind the attacker.

Scanning can be part of this.
But scanning is the sensor — not the strategy.

A store doesn't need a tool that "finds bugs."
It needs a system that detects risk.

Risk shows up as signals:

  • Configuration drift
  • Permission drift
  • Unexpected changes in files, cron jobs, or integrations
  • New supply-chain exposure (plugins, modules, dependencies)
  • Suspicious behavior that doesn't map neatly to a CVE

Bugs are symptoms.
Risk is the diagnosis.

Baseline-driven security is about control:

  • Define what "secure enough" means for configuration, access, change, and integrations
  • Detect drift early (before it becomes an incident)
  • Turn signals into prioritized risks (so the team acts on what matters)

In the AI age, the teams that stay ahead aren't the ones who fix the most bugs.
They're the ones who keep the system from drifting into danger.

Less chasing.
More standing firm.
