Benchling says its security architecture now processes more than 600 AI-generated code-execution sessions daily across more than 250 life-sciences tenants each week, with no security incidents reported. The deployment runs Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Code Interpreter in a separate AWS account with no internet or NAT gateway. Route 53 DNS Firewall blocks unapproved domain resolution, VPC endpoint policies limit reachable storage buckets, and temporary credentials restrict each job to one tenant's data. Benchling continuously tests attempted DNS tunneling, unauthorized connections and access to unapproved buckets, but the performance and incident figures come from the companies' account.
