Software Quality Pioneer Recognized for Application Security Innovation and Industry Leadership
San Francisco, Calif. – June 30, 2009 –
Coverity®, the software integrity company, today announced that it has been named to the 2009 SD Times 100 in recognition of its leadership in application security. The SD Times 100 recognizes companies, non-commercial organizations and other influencers for their innovation and leadership within industry categories that most broadly "set the agenda" for software development managers, developers, and the software development industry during the past calendar year.
"SD Times 100 winners' products and services advance the art of software development", said Alan Zeichick, editorial director, SD Times. "Leadership and innovation can't be measured by stock valuations or analyst reports. The SD Times 100 represents what we believe to be the best of the best. We looked for companies that have determined a direction that developers follow and that set the industry agenda."
Coverity provides advanced software integrity and source code analysis technology that removes the barriers to writing and delivering high integrity software. Development teams at more than 600 customer sites rely on Coverity to automatically find and help to eliminate quality, security and performance problems early in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).
Coverity's flagship solution, the Coverity Integrity Center, helps ensure application security in the design, code, build and test phases of the software development process. It combines powerful architecture, build, static and dynamic analysis capabilities that enable development teams to decrease cost, accelerate time-to-market, reduce risk and ensure compliance.
"We are pleased the SD Times staff has recognized Coverity for reshaping the way developers eliminate security risks in the software that runs their products, systems, and businesses," said Dave Peterson, CMO at Coverity. "There is a clear shift to attacking software security problems early in the lifecycle to avoid costly rework created by late stage security audit reviews and testing.
