What is Synopsys Coverity?
Coverity® by Synopsys is a static analysis (SAST) solution that helps development and security teams address security and quality defects early in the software development life cycle (SDLC), track and manage risks across the application portfolio, and ensure compliance with security and coding standards.
Coverity identifies critical software quality defects and security vulnerabilities in code as it’s written, early in the development process, when it’s least costly and easiest to fix. With the Code Sight™ integrated development environment (IDE) plugin, developers get accurate analysis in seconds in their IDE as they code. Precise actionable remediation advice and context-specific eLearning help developers understand how to fix their prioritized issues quickly, without having to become security experts.
Coverity integrates automated security testing into the CI/CD pipelines and supports existing development tools and workflows. Users can choose where and how to do development: on-premises or in the cloud with the Polaris Software Integrity Platform™ (SaaS), a cloud-based application security platform. Coverity supports 22 languages and over 70 frameworks and templates.

Coverity Static Analysis (SAST) helps your organization in detection of vulnerabilities in the code. Your development team would be able to release vulnerability free apps and there by reducing post go live pain of code correction from security perspective. Coverity Static Analysis (SAST) tool can be integrated with devsecops pipeline and ensure automation of security code testing and remediation before someone else discovers the vulnerabilities. Coverity Static Analysis (SAST) reduced efforts by 30% in rolling out builds through DevSecOps
- It can provide security scanning dashboard
- Help detect vulnerabilities and recommend remediation
- Integration of devsecops helps speed up release cycles
- Coverage of integration with other security tools can be improved
- Customisation of dashboard to enable customer choice of tracking
- Showcase devsecops progressive tasks from SLA and violation from code scanner perspective
- Privacy values like card or SSN detection

- Tracking historical analysis of vulnerabilities
- Helped reduce efforts of development team avoiding rework
- Increased security maturity
- Increased efficiency of the teams
Coverity Static Analysis (SAST) has wide coverage in terms of Owasp Top 10 vulnerabilities, various types of languages, backward integration. While other tools offer similar experience of code scanning, coverity helps in pointed recommendations for quick closure of vulnerabilities. The historical analysis of vulnerabilities is a good value add in understanding which type of code and which language is better in improving cyber security maturity.
