Solutions - Military and Aerospace

In no other market does compliance and end-user safety have a greater impact that in the military and aerospace sectors. Development teams for these industries face some of the most demanding requirements for software quality and secure code. The impact of latent or "0-day" defects can have a disastrous impact on people in the air or on the battlefield, and on your business.

Fortune 500 companies turn to Klocwork Insight to ensure their applications meet client expectations and deliver the required robustness and vulnerability protection. Bugs happen as a natural part of the development process, but success is measured by eliminating code defects and rectifying software vulnerabilities before release. Project cost, delivery timing and warrantee claims all depend on removing the defects at the earliest and cheapest possible point in the development process. By scrutinizing code both at the developer desktop and at the build phase with whole program analysis, Klocwork Insight provides the best possible solution to ensure code quality.

Focus on Developer Productivity is the Key

Static analysis does not require code execution, so there is no need to set up a multitude of production scenarios and settings, and test cases are not needed. By the time the development team is ready to test all software components, serious coding defects will be removed, enabling more efficient functional and performance testing.

Early Testing for Higher Quality

By enabling developers to identify and fix critical bugs of all kinds while they are working, Klocwork static analysis makes it possible for safety-critical manufacturers and their suppliers to conduct early testing for serious, crash-causing defects in code. This can be done at compile time, well before any integration, module or unit tests begin.

Enabling Regulatory Compliance

Military/Aerospace systems manufacturers can face crippling costs when software fails in the field, as well as being subject to regulatory compliance in many industries. Klocwork Insight can assist organizations in addressing many of these requirements and it helps organizations to demonstrate that they are:

  • Adhering to DO-178B standard [MORE]
  • Implementing MISRA and other coding standards [MORE]
  • Focusing on early prevention of defects [MORE]
  • Verifying software in addition to QA [MORE]
  • Documenting system design and/or structure [MORE]
