The Coverity Software Integrity Audit will help Global 2000 executives answer two critical questions;

• "Are there safety-critical software defects shipping in my products?"
• "Are there safety-critical software defects in my supplier's products?"

The Coverity Software Integrity Audit program is free for qualified Global 2000 companies with safety-critical software concerns. The program is designed to expose software defects that could change the behavior, freeze the operation or impair the performance of your safety-critical devices or products. Upon qualification, Coverity will also extend this offer to your select suppliers to help expose software integrity problems in your third-party components, devices, and products.

The Coverity Software Integrity Audit will provide your executive and development teams with critical software integrity information such as:

• A list of software defects in the code that operates your safety-critical devices, components and products
• The potential impact those software defects can have on the behavior, operation or performance of your products
• The overall Coverity Integrity Rating of your audited product or code base, comparing your software integrity rating against industry averages

“It’s not so much that Coverity is our only safety net—we have other means to ensure safety such as code reviews and testing. But the real benefit of Coverity is that it can find specific defects which are very hard, if not impossible, to find by other means. These defects are also the ones that rarely occur, and in the worst case are identified in the field, but are the most expensive and highest risk defects to Frequentis and our customers. Coverity is a good compliment to our existing processes and tools to ensure the highest levels of product safety and quality.”
