The latest release of Klocwork features the launch of JavaScript, which greatly enhances the static analysis and SAST tool’s offerings. In addition, the release includes a number of other significant improvements that greatly enhance the tool’s performance and functionality. Here, we provide an overview of the new analysis engine.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is changing the way we physically and digitally interact in the world. With the global IoT market projected to reach nearly $2 trillion by 2028, developers are looking for ways to take advantage of the increasing demand and gain a cutting edge. For many teams, IoT development combined with using digital twins for verification allows them to make better decisions during development and visually market their devices after launch. How?
Changes to your requirements have consequences. To make informed decisions with your product, leaders must consider all of the potential implications. The best way to do this is by performing a detailed impact analysis whenever a requirements change is requested.
When working on electronic products, many organizations divide their projects between hardware and software teams working in parallel. This is because these engineering teams have distinct methodologies to how they design, document, and communicate their changes to the design. This approach, however, can lead to costly issues, which is where a system-level bill of materials (system BoM) is critical for bringing hardware and software teams together.
Earlier this year, the White House issued an Executive Order on cybersecurity that set out to establish new security requirements for software vendors that sell software to the U.S. government. One such requirement is that vendors provide a software bill of materials (SBOM) as part of the federal procurement process. In this blog, we break down what a software bill of materials is, why it is important, and provide SBOM examples.
The automotive industry has been experiencing a great deal of change within the past several years. More software is being added to vehicles, along with a greater number of electric and autonomous vehicles are in production and on the road. By learning about the emerging trends, you will be more capable of keeping pace with them. Read along or jump ahead to the section that interests you the most.
ISO/IEC 5055:2021, titled “Information technology — Software measurement — Software quality measurement — Automated source code quality measures”, is a software quality standard. Software flaws at the technology and system level account for 8% of total errors, but consume over half the effort spent fixing problems that lead to 90% of the most serious production issues. ISO 5055 has been designed to directly measure those critical software flaws.
Earlier this month, an executive order was issued from the White House aimed at improving the cybersecurity of the United States. This much-anticipated order comes on the heels of widely publicized digital attacks, such as Colonial Pipeline and SolarWinds, which illustrate the current state of cybersecurity standards in the software industry.
