Static Code Analysis

Static Code Analysis

Developing secure code is a difficult task.  The days of human, manual "Peer Review" as the only point in the development life cycle to identify code defects are over.  As the industry shifts to adopting tools that detect flaws, static code analysis (SCA) has become an important part of creating quality code.

Static code analysis quickly and automatically checks the code to discover security flaws and issues that might be missed by people.  It functions by reviewing the code without actually executing the code,  This can be done at a source code level (Source Code Analysis - SCA) or binary level (Binary Code Analysis, BCA).
