ABSTRACT:

Organizations often fail to realize the pivotal role static source code analysis plays in enhancing software quality and security. Without this level of code analysis, critical vulnerabilities can be exploited after release and coding mistakes can cause inventory turnaround, resulting in serious expenses.

This white paper details the benefits associated with automated source code analysis, highlighting how it can be used to identify software errors before shipment. Learn how source code analysis can enable developers to scrub their code of weaknesses as they work, and before they submit their code for check-in or more formal down-stream validation procedures. Explore the important security vulnerabilities and defects that can be found with source code analysis, including:

  • Denial of service
  • SQL injection
  • Buffer overflow
  • Cross-site scripting
  • Process/file injection
