Enhanced data flow analysis

This article was originally published in VSJ, which is now part of Developer Fusion.
Parasoft’s Application Security Solution establishes a continuous process addressing the need to deploy security verification and remediation tasks across every stage of the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), in a way that is integrated with the workflow. It promises to extend traditional data flow analysis from software quality to application security. This server-based technology statically simulates application execution paths to help teams find vulnerabilities that might otherwise remain unnoticed until exploited. Vulnerabilities detected include SQL injection, cross-site scripting, exposure of sensitive data, and other potential issues. Tests are performed automatically so there are no test cases to design, implement, execute, or maintain. The latest enhancements draw upon a knowledge base of common attack patterns.
