Google advances AI security with CodeMender and SAIF 2.0

🔒 Google announced three major AI security initiatives: CodeMender, a dedicated AI Vulnerability Reward Program (AI VRP), and the updated Secure AI Framework 2.0. CodeMender is an AI-powered agent built on Gemini that performs root-cause analysis, generates self-validated patches, and routes fixes to automated critique agents to accelerate time-to-patch across open-source projects. The AI VRP consolidates abuse and security reward tables and clarifies reporting channels, while SAIF 2.0 extends guidance and introduces an agent risk map and security controls for autonomous agents.
