I don't actually have a clear perspective on StackHawk's AI capabilities regarding its governance and security. My advice to others looking into using StackHawk is to stay prepared. Document how your architecture works, whether you have decoupled services or not. Based on that, it will be easier or not to use the application. In our case, we had to deploy an agent within our cluster and that was the only way we could analyze our microservices. So be prepared, especially technically, because they can help a lot in different areas, but you're the owner of your own infrastructure, so it relies on you how you're going to implement the solution. My overall rating for this review is seven out of ten.
