ABSTRACT:
Automated source code analysis (SCA) technology locates and describes critical bugs and security vulnerabilities in software source code. Today, developers of mission-critical software are using the technology to perform code analysis at system build time. However, system build-time analysis suffers from an inherent weakness: bugs impact the main code stream before they are even detected. This paper proposes a solution: moving high-quality SCA to the developer's desktop and performing it at the earliest point in the development cycle - before code check-in - thereby reducing costs, enabling QA efficiency and improving end-product quality and security.
