Description

Brakeman serves as a security assessment tool tailored for Ruby on Rails applications. In contrast to several typical web security scanners, Brakeman analyzes the actual source code of your application rather than requiring a full application stack setup. After scanning the application code, it generates a comprehensive report detailing all identified security vulnerabilities. Installation is straightforward, with Brakeman needing no additional setup or configuration—simply launch it. Since it operates solely on the source code, Brakeman can be executed at any phase of development; for instance, you can create a new application with "rails new" and promptly evaluate it using Brakeman. By not depending on spidering techniques to explore site pages, Brakeman ensures a more thorough assessment of an application, including those pages that may be under development and not yet publicly accessible. This capability allows Brakeman to potentially identify security weaknesses before they can be exploited by malicious actors. As a tool specifically designed for Ruby on Rails applications, Brakeman adeptly verifies configuration settings against established best practices, thereby enhancing overall application security. Its efficiency and ease of use make it an invaluable resource for developers focusing on secure coding practices.

Description

TrustInSoft commercializes a source code analyzer called TrustInSoft Analyzer, which analyzes C and C++ code and mathematically guarantees the absence of defects, immunity of software components to the most common security flaws, and compliance with a specification. The technology is recognized by U.S. federal agency the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and was the first in the world to meet NIST’s SATE V Ockham Criteria for high quality software. The key differentiator for TrustInSoft Analyzer is its use of mathematical approaches called formal methods, which allow for an exhaustive analysis to find all the vulnerabilities or runtime errors and only raises true alarms. Companies who use TrustInSoft Analyzer reduce their verification costs by 4, efforts in bug detection by 40, and obtain an irrefutable proof that their software is safe and secure. The experts at TrustInSoft can also assist clients in training, support and additional services.
