I had an interesting conversation recently about the after-effects of Heartbleed and the challenges facing static analysis with Barton Miller, the chief scientist of the Software Assurance Marketplace ...

For decades, engineering security workflows followed a pattern: Static analysis tools scanned codebases and generated findings for developers to review. SAST and DAST analyzed applications to surface ...

Static program analysis encompasses a suite of techniques that examine software without executing it, in order to detect defects, verify properties and guide optimisation. Fundamental approaches ...

Static analysis works on source code and tries to identify errors based on what it can tell about the program. For example, it can highlight “dead code” that will never execute. And sometimes it can ...

Over the years, medical devices have become increasingly dependent on software. They have evolved from the use of a metronome circuit for early cardiac pacemakers to functions that include ...

There are two main types of malware analysis: static and dynamic. Performing static analysis of a malicious binary means concentrating on analyizing its code without executing it. This type of ...

Static code analysis offers extensive insights into code that can help you improve code quality and security, the speed of development, and even team collaboration and planning. Here’s everything you ...

If you are a software developer working in the video game industry and wondering what else you could do to improve the quality of your product or make the development process easier and you don't use ...
