Assess, govern, and securely integrate AI-assisted development tools (e.g., copilots, code review assistants, chat/agent automations) into Azure DevOps/GitHub and SDLC workflows by enforcing data protection and access controls (least privilege, secrets isolation, token hygiene), validating vendor/security posture, defining acceptable-use and logging/audit requirements, and mitigating risks such as sensitive data leakage, prompt injection, and supply-chain compromise.
