Solutions
Coverity provides trusted quality and security solutions for the market leaders that develop products and services that run on software. We help prevent costly and brand damaging software failures and security breaches by empowering development to find and fix software defects early, effectively and efficiently: before QA testers, security auditors or worse, customers find them—when they are still "just a bug". The business result: faster time-to-market, greater customer satisfaction and sustained competitive advantage.
- We have more than five billion lines of proprietary and open source code under management.
- We are the testing gate to more than 11 billion products shipping in the market today.
- We are embedded in the development process at 7 of the top 10 global brands.
- We are used by 3 of the top 5 security companies to assure the quality and security of their code.
- We test the exchange systems that execute more than two billion trades every day.
- We contributed to two of the most significant scientific achievements this century—the landing of NASA's Curiosity Rover on Mars and CERN's discovery of the Higgs particle.
Read below to see how we have helped market leaders worldwide address quality and security.

Holistic Management of Security and Quality
Organizations have been attempting to minimize their risk of software failures with siloed teams, tools and processes—which is inefficient and ineffective. And quality and security is no longer an either/or decision. A highly-secure application that's not available equals customer satisfaction issues, downtime and lost revenue. A highly-available application with security holes introduces risk. Coverity enables organizations to minimize their risk by providing a single platform and standardized process for assuring code quality and security during development, where the issues are introduced, which saves time and resources. Learn more.
The Coverity Advantage:
Accurate: Through a deep understanding of the application, including both the source code and the web application architecture, Coverity provides highly-accurate analysis results so developers don't waste time managing a large volume of false positive results.
Actionable: Coverity provides developers with actionable information and the precise remediation guidance they need to remove quality defects and potential security vulnerabilities without requiring them to become security experts.
Integrated: Coverity integrates with the tools developers use on a daily basis, making it much easier for development teams to embed development testing into their workflow. And developers can find and fix both security and quality issues with one analysis and one workflow, saving time and effort.
Holistic: Coverity marries quality and security testing together in development with a single, unified process and developer-friendly technologies, enabling organizations to fix the most critical issues with existing resources and without slowing down.

Safety and
Mission Critical
10 of the 10 world's largest aerospace and defense companies use Coverity
Software is a critical component of safety and mission critical systems, including aerospace and defense systems, automotive systems, medical devices, industrial automation systems and critical infrastructure systems. When safety is at stake there is zero tolerance for software failure–a single defect that impacts software reliability could mean a costly and brand damaging recall, or worse. And reliability is now just part of the software quality equation–as devices become more connected and mobile they have become the next vector for security threats.
Coverity helps companies and government organizations developing safety and mission critical systems ensure software quality and security--without sacrificing speed or cost.
- Automate code testing with accuracy and surface issues in the developer workflow.
- Remediate quality and security issues quickly and efficiently.
- Manage issues to resolution with an enforceable, traceable process.
- Enforce a consistent code quality and security standard across your entire supply chain–spanning internal teams, COTS, FOSS, sub-contractors and Tier 1 suppliers.
- Demonstrate adherence to software testing guidelines across a variety of safety-critical standards including RTCA DO-178B/C, DISA STIG, ISO 26262 and FDA General Principles of Software Validation.

Electronics
10 of the 10 world's largest consumer electronics companies use Coverity
From smartphones to GPS navigation systems, it's an innovation arms race to deliver new products and features to market ahead of the competition. Innovation that is largely driven by software. Consumers expect high quality products that are reliable and work as intended. But reliability is now just part of the software quality equation. Most handheld portable electronic devices are mobile devices. Mobility coupled with increasing interconnectivity increases the risk of security attacks. Software defects that impact product reliability, performance or security could mean lost revenues, lost customer satisfaction, and brand damage. Unfortunately, the need for speed and time to market all too often means not enough time for software testing, increasing the risk of software defects entering the field.
Coverity helps companies developing mobile and consumer electronics devices ensure software quality and security--without sacrificing speed or cost.
- Automate code testing with accuracy and surface issues in the developer workflow.
- Remediate quality and security issues quickly and efficiently.
- Manage issues to resolution with an enforceable, traceable process.
- Enforce a consistent code quality and security standard across your entire supply chain: internal teams, open source and third party suppliers.

From online banking to algorithmic trading, software is at the heart of innovation in financial services industry. Speed is paramount, whether it's the need to bring new products and services to market quickly for customer satisfaction and competitive advantage, or to achieve faster transactional throughput and sub-millisecond latency in high frequency trading systems. Unfortunately, the need for speed and time to market all too often means not enough time for software testing. Recent headlines remind us of the significant impact that a single software defect can have on a business. Just a minor coding error has the potential to miscalculate transactions or analysis, cripple financial institutions' systems, create a security breach or cause system downtime--all leading to substantial losses in revenue, brand damage and customer satisfaction. In an environment where time to market is critical and software failures or security breaches are unacceptable, financial institutions need to test software early in development to reduce operational and technology risk, before it becomes a brand damaging and costly incident.
Coverity works with some of the largest financial institutions in the world ensure software quality and security--without sacrificing speed or cost.
- Automate code testing with accuracy and surface issues in the developer workflow.
- Remediate quality and security issues quickly and efficiently.
- Manage issues to resolution with an enforceable, traceable process.
- Enforce a consistent code quality and security standard across your entire supply chain–internal teams, offshore teams and open source.
