IBM and Red Hat have turned their Project Lightwell vision into two commercial products: Lightwell Network and Lightwell Clearinghouse Premier. The offerings aim to protect open‑source projects from security holes that AI tools can discover. Developers benefit from AI’s speed in building software, but the same technology also lets hackers find and exploit vulnerabilities more quickly. Lightwell Network and Clearinghouse Premier provide tools to detect, mitigate, and manage these AI‑identified risks.
