NEDO Project
Publication of results from the Project for Promoting R&D and Verification to Strengthen AI Safety / R&D for Strengthening AI Safety
Corpy & Co., Inc. has published R&D results from its work since April 2025 on preparing implementation guidance for companies from the perspective of operational planning and management in generative AI safety evaluation. The work was carried out under the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) project “Project for Promoting R&D and Verification to Strengthen AI Safety / R&D for Strengthening AI Safety.”
This page provides an English guide to the confirmed Japanese publication. An official English edition of the report or templates has not been confirmed.
Background: an urgent need to ensure generative AI safety and respond to international standards
As generative AI has rapidly spread, safety risks including hallucinations (outputs that differ from the facts), prompt injection (malfunctions caused by malicious inputs) and the generation of harmful content have become social issues. International AI regulation is also accelerating, including the phased implementation of the EU AI Act in Europe. Companies in Japan are therefore increasingly expected to establish systems for managing and evaluating AI safety systematically.
ISO/IEC 42001, the international standard for AI management systems, provides a framework for organizations to address AI risks. However, it does not prescribe specific safety-evaluation methods or criteria, leaving each organization to determine what to evaluate and in what order.
R&D overview and results
In this project, Corpy developed the following deliverables to bridge the practical gap between the requirements of ISO/IEC 42001 and the implementation of generative AI safety evaluation.
Deliverable 1: “Generative AI Safety Evaluation Protocol Based on an AI Management System and Its Implementation Guide”
This implementation guide organizes a generative AI safety evaluation protocol aligned with ISO/IEC 42001 into three phases: analysis, testing and reporting. It presents the full process—from risk assessment and test planning through evaluation and report preparation—so that practitioners can understand the concrete steps involved. Using a hypothetical customer-support system based on a vision-language model (*1), it also presents specific evaluation examples, including integration testing (*3) against jailbreak attacks (*2) and unit testing (*5) for data-poisoning detection (*4).
The report also raises practical issues and provides examples concerning important concepts such as “access” and “agency” (*6) in risk assessment, “exposure mapping” (*8) when using LLM-as-a-Judge (*7) for safety evaluation, and the “chain of trust” (*9) in supply-chain management.
Deliverable 2: Generative AI Safety Evaluation Template with completed examples
This recording template corresponds to each step of the evaluation protocol. It covers the entire process, including business-context analysis, stakeholder analysis, system-structure analysis, risk assessment, risk-treatment planning and the statement of applicability, test planning, test methods, and resources used for testing.
Concrete completed examples based on a hypothetical chatbot system are included and can be used as a reference when companies apply the template to their own AI systems.

Outlook
Corpy will continue using knowledge gained through this project to contribute to the international standardization and practical deployment of AI safety-evaluation technologies. By promoting approaches for conforming to AI management system standards, including ISO/IEC 42001, and supporting environments in which companies can use AI with confidence, Corpy aims to accelerate the realization of mission-critical AI.
