Codacy Introduces Complimentary AI Risk Assessment Tool to Enhance Coding Security
In a significant step for software development, Codacy has launched a free AI Coding Risk Assessment aimed at helping organizations evaluate the security and compliance of their AI-assisted development processes. The tool, announced on November 3, 2025, in Lisbon, Portugal, allows engineering teams to conduct a self-assessment by answering a set of 24 targeted questions, thereby creating a personalized benchmark against industry standards.
As industries strive to balance the rapid advancement of generative AI with the complexities of managing machine-generated code risks, this initiative addresses critical areas such as Policy and Governance, Security and Risk Management, and Culture and Training. The survey identifies how companies are mitigating potential threats in their coding practices.
"Conversations with leaders in the AI sector highlighted the need for a unified, data-driven resource," said Jaime Jorge, CEO and Co-founder of Codacy. "This benchmark enables organizations to assess their current standing, benchmark against peers, and implement practical strategies for scaling their AI operations."
Participants will receive customized insights, including an AI Governance and Security checklist that pinpoints operational gaps, fostering a more secure development environment. This tool represents a proactive approach for companies wishing to integrate AI technologies securely.
