Software tool eliminates security vulnerabilities

Article By : GrammaTech

CodeSonar 4.5 Risk Dashboard tool helps detect, measure and eliminate security risks in software development and deployment via standard metrics.

GrammaTech has launched the CodeSonar Risk Dashboard software assurance tool and cybersecurity solution that enables IT teams and executives to detect and eliminate security vulnerabilities in their projects. The Risk Dashboard provides an immediate read-out of the level of outstanding security risks in software projects thus helping executives to improve their decision-making with regards to their security investments.

The Risk Dashboard allows for the expression of industry standard and project specific metrics based on the warnings reported by CodeSonar, thereby visualising the outstanding risks in a project. The Risk Dashboard supports both source and binary analysis. It can be used to measure risks during the software development phase and in deployment environments.

The Risk Dashboard will be available in the CodeSonar 4.5 upgrade to licensed customers and provides industry standard metrics that can be customised to individual project needs. CodeSonar 4.5 will be available in the second quarter of 2017.
