Editorial assessment · Compiled from vendor product, docs, pricing and marketplace pages · Rated October 2026
ANSWER FIRST
Wiz Code ranks ninth at 3.3 out of 5. It scores 4.5 on remediation and ASPM depth by tying code findings to the Wiz Security Graph, and ships plugins for Claude Code and Cursor. It scores lower on endpoint deployment and governance because no endpoint agent or agent allow and block policy is described, and it is sold as an add-on for Wiz Cloud.

What does Wiz Code do for AI-generated code?
Wiz Code is the code security module of the Wiz cloud security platform. It scans in the IDE, in pull requests and in CI/CD with built-in SAST, SCA and secrets scanning, aggregates findings from third-party scanners, and links them to the Wiz Security Graph, which also models CI/CD pipelines.
For AI-written code, Wiz announced during Wiz Code Week (April 2026) plugins for AI native IDEs such as Claude Code and Cursor, pre-commit hooks that catch secrets, IaC misconfigurations and vulnerabilities before code reaches source control, SAST rules mapped to the OWASP Top 10 for LLM and for Agentic Applications, and an AI-BOM of AI frameworks, models and IDE extensions. Wiz Skills let coding agents pull issues and apply fixes in the IDE through the Wiz Green Agent.
