Ounce’s Code Scanning Prevents Vulnerabilities, Foils Attacks

05/08/2006 - CRN

Summary
Waltham, Massachusetts-based company Ounce Labs has developed a code-scanning and analysis platform that searches Java, C/C++, and .Net applications for security vulnerabilities. Ounce Labs team of security experts includes CTO Jack Danahy and engineering vice president Larry Rose. The Ounce source code analysis platform is geared towards independent software vendors, corporate developers, custom application developers, and channel partners.

Code scanning has become an integral piece of the development process for many software makers. “Most applications are insecure—where they’re developed, offshore, insourced or outsourced,” says Danahy, mentioning that Ounce usually finds security vulnerability even in applications written by great developers. But, according to Danahy, developers are not the ones who will pay the ultimate price for lack of security in software – “they’re the execs who make business decisions.”
