Anthropic just brought Claude Code to the web, giving developers a browser-based way to connect to GitHub, write and edit code, and even open pull requests with the help of AI. It’s fast, powerful, and built for productivity. Developers can spin up isolated sandboxes, test code instantly, and let Claude handle tedious fixes or documentation, all from a clean interface.
In short, it’s like giving your IDE a brain upgrade. But any time AI starts touching live repositories and credentials, security teams should pay attention.
The Convenience Comes with Consequences
Letting AI work directly with code repositories blurs the line between human and machine control. Even though Anthropic has built sandbox isolation and restricted network access, the reality is that AI systems are now acting inside development environments that contain sensitive data.
That means new potential risks: code exposure, supply-chain vulnerabilities, misconfigured access controls, and automation that moves faster than security policies can react. The same AI that speeds up development can also push unreviewed code, import shady dependencies, or open the wrong door in your network.
It’s not that Claude Code is unsafe. It’s that every new layer of automation increases complexity, and complexity is where attackers thrive.
AI in development is no longer a theoretical concern; it’s part of your software supply chain. And if you’re not monitoring how these tools interact with your repositories, you’re already playing catch-up.
How Prompt Security Keeps Claude Code Secure
At Prompt Security, we make sure innovation never becomes a security liability. We provide organizations with visibility and control over every AI interaction happening across browsers, desktops, and integrated tools like Claude.
When developers use Claude Code, we help you:
- See every AI action in real time. Every prompt, response, and code change is logged, analyzed, and traceable.
- Stop unauthorized access before it happens. We automatically block unapproved AI tools, credentials, and repository connections.
- Control AI-generated code. Our policy enforcement ensures that no code is pushed, merged, or deployed without review and approval.
- Detect shadow AI use. If an engineer starts using Claude (or any other AI tool) outside policy, you’ll know instantly.
- Maintain a full audit trail. Every interaction is documented for compliance, security reviews, and peace of mind.
With Prompt Security in place, your developers can safely leverage Claude Code’s speed and intelligence without exposing your organization to unnecessary risk.
Innovation Is Great. Blind Trust Is Not.
Claude Code on the web is another leap toward intelligent, cloud-based development. It can make teams more productive, more creative, and faster than ever. But the security challenges it introduces are real, and ignoring them could mean giving away your most valuable intellectual property.
With Prompt Security, you get visibility, control, and automatic enforcement that keeps your AI-driven workflows safe from insider mistakes, shadow tools, and external threats.
You don’t have to choose between productivity and protection. With Prompt Security, you can finally have both. Book a demo today with our team to learn more.
