Klocwork
Faster delivery of secure, reliable, and conformant code
As teams develop code with more features, shorter timelines, and stricter standards than ever before, it gets increasingly difficult to find bugs and fix security flaws. With this complexity, how do we stop data breaches and application crashes before they're passed on to the customer? How do we find them earlier in the process, so developers can spend more time creating real value for the customer rather than fixing defective code?
It starts at the developer's desktop. It's here where code is written, tested, reviewed, and written again. Finding problems here, at the earliest possible point before the build, means less testing later on and fewer downstream impacts to cost and schedule. It continues with Continuous Integration (CI), only Klocwork supports popular CI tools to perform analysis on incremental code changes, during check in, to keep pace with rapid release delivery cycles. Klocwork puts static code analysis where you need it, identifying critical safety, reliability, and coding standards issues in front of developers' eyes - before, during, and after check in.
Bugs and security vulnerabilities are best found and resolved closest to where they are introduced - at the desktop or through a Continuous Integration build. Finding these sooner and fixing them quickly translates into delivering better products, faster. Klocwork runs while code is created, checking line-by-line, so issues are immediately identified and addressed. In-context resolution, to ensure remediation is done by the right people - those closest to the code.
The security landscape is constantly changing. Ensure your code is security-aware and compliant with Klocwork standard security and Security vulnerabilities and reliability issues are presented as they occur on the developer desktop or through Continuous Integration build results. Developers can identify and fix these issues before code is merged into the release.
Write the right code, at the right time, and commit with confidence.
Klocwork marks security weaknesses and code errors in your code as you type. Think of it as a spell checker for C/C++, Java or C# source code. Investigate the depth of the issue with the traceback path, which identifies and describes each of the statements in the code that are contributing to a particular issue. Get details on each issue or security risk with Klocwork best practices links in the context-sensitive help for additional information on a particular area of software security.
Klocwork is used in many of the largest, most demanding software development environments in the world.
Static code analysis (SCA) proves its value in reducing defects and security vulnerabilities time and time again. But it also carries the potential for confusion: Identifying which issues to fix first. Whether the list of defects is too large or developers are wary of false positives, teams often struggle to find a balance between the many benefits of SCA and the possibility that it may create more work.
With Klocwork SmartRank, achieving that balance is possible. SmartRank recommends specific issues to review and fix first, accelerating productivity gains by reducing the time spent chasing those issues that matter most to your released software.
With SmartRank turned on, the issues most likely to be true positives, and most likely to occur in the field, are sorted and prioritized for review first, providing a trusted, automated, and repeatable method for planning work. Developers can quickly decide which defects to work on first because the ranking of the analysis results is clear - the strongest recommendations are literally at the top of the list.
The Klocwork static analysis engine is a sophisticated set of high-performing algorithms that operate on a representation of an application’s source code to determine control and data paths, and identify security, quality, and standards compliance issues. Many components of the SCA engine offer different factors used to calculate a ranking that a detected issue is a true issue. Based on a customizable threshold, this ranking is translated into SmartRank recommendations for the user, indicating that these issues should be reviewed and fixed first.
The adoption of Agile methods, DevOps, and continuous integration (CI) has taken the velocity of software development to unprecedented levels ... and now Klocwork accelerates the pace by introducing continuous static code analysis (CSCA).
Continuous static code analysis is where comprehensive security, safety, reliability, and performance checkers meet continuous integration tools to provide rapid feedback on the health of incremental check ins across the development team. This is made possible by the unique architecture of the Klocwork analysis engine, designed to maximize scalability and performance for multiple concurrent analysis at a time. In other words, if you're delivering many releases a day, only Klocwork CSCA handles the frequency and complexity of code changes to give every developer accurate results without the analysis engine getting confused or slowing down.
Klocwork integrates with popular CI tools, such as Jenkins and TeamCity, and supports any system that uses scripting and the command line. Along with on-the-fly analysis, this enables robust automated testing across the full spread of development activities: on the desktop as developers are coding, on incremental updates at check-in time, and during integration builds on the overall release. At any time, developers and testers get quick, insightful analysis to pinpoint issues and resolve them faster.
All checkers, all the time, or a customized set applied right when you want it, Klocwork meets your team right where testing happens.
More and more, the world runs on software. Depends on it. And the requirements for those developing software keep growing. Make it faster, better, more secure.
Faster? Check. Better? Check. Secure? It's not easy to know and validate. And the risk is large. Not only can hackers damage your product, your company, and your brand, they can put lives at risk by adjusting the braking system on a car, interfering with pacemakers, or worse. Development teams own the functionality and the responsibility for ensuring code is tested and secure.
Protect your code, your product, your brand, and your livelihood with Klocwork static code analysis. Klocwork automates the detection of hundreds of potential security vulnerabilities in source code from the convenience of the developer desktop and the speed of Continuous Integration (CI) systems. Apply a consistent, best practice approach to identifying, fixing and managing real security vulnerabilities across your organization.
Most organizations need to comply with multiple coding standards to ensure software security. Klocwork includes built-in checkers to support all of the leading standards:
Klocwork ships with hundreds of checkers. Our static code analysis engine can be tailored to enforce the rules for compliance with each standard by enabling or disabling individual checkers or full checker groups to meet the specific needs of your software development environment and processes. We've also worked with some of the largest consumer, military, communications, electronic, mobile and other companies in the world to create a checker API, providing your teams the ability to quickly and easily create customized security checkers.
Klocwork is engineered to detect these weaknesses:
You need answers to complex questions about the security, reliability, and maintainability of your entire code base. With Klocwork, you get detailed information through customizable dashboards. Organize code metrics by what matters, including team, geography, components, and other attributes.
The Klocwork Quality Standard, created by our in-house static code analysis experts, provides an easy way to monitor, manage, and improve the reliability of your software projects.
By applying the Klocwork Quality Standard to new or existing projects, software defects are classified into categories such as suspicious code practices, resource leaks, maintainability, performance, and more. The built-in quality report will show you the trends, new issues, and areas of code with the most issues in these categories. This allows developers and managers to focus their efforts on the categories which are most critical to improving the quality of their software projects.
Klocwork includes built-in security reports to easily visualize the security status and vulnerability trends in your most important software projects. These reports are ideal for including in project status reports to management and other stakeholders.
Klocwork automatically aggregates information about what is being found and fixed at the desktop even though it is never propagated into the source stream. Your teams will better understand the bug reduction activity before code check-in, generating a bottom-up view of how well bug containment efforts are working. Identify the areas of greatest risk within a code base early in an iteration. And see this information by people, groups, geography, components, and any other attribute that matters to your organization.
Visualize and modularize software projects, hierarchies and interdependencies with the Klocwork rich code architecture platform. Through our integrations, build analysis data is loaded directly into the leading third-party architecture tools, to optimize overall software design, maximize code reuse, conduct detailed impact analysis, and more.
Klocwork code review brings all of our safety, reliability, and coding standards defects into a collaborative problem-solving environment, so your teams can fix them faster. With all the features of a standard code review tool, such as smart diffs and integration into your source code management system, Klocwork is already on top of your review game. Adding in social notifications, threaded discussions, and an infinite activity wall, developers are always informed and instantly able to help solve the latest defects and create better code.
Developers can start, participate in, or follow reviews with just one click - for any type of code or text file. The review space can be designed and customized to suit individual needs by monitoring relevant projects, creating interest areas, and getting notified of only the things that matter. With analysis results and issues integrated right into the review space, developers work together in real-time to trace, comment, and fix issues without leaving their desktops. Once fixed, changes are easily checked in with support for several SCMs, including Git, Perforce, Subversion, ClearCase, and CVS.
Klocwork brings social collaboration to solving coding issues, combining skillsets and sharing this learning across teams. Here's just a few of the ways in which Klocwork speeds up code reviews:
