Delivering SAST results with the speed of relevance - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

Static Application Security Testing (SAST) is one of the most important software best practices to put in place. SAST, done well, helps software engineers remove defects from their code that they never thought of existed, or simply overlooked. The reason for this is simple: good SAST tools calculate through all available execution paths of a piece of software in a technique called abstract execution. This, of course, takes time to do well. And this is one of the tasks that SAST users struggle with when introducing SAST into a running project, especially when introducing it into a large project: How to get results to the software developer quickly. This presentation, part of GrammaTech’s SAST Practitioner series, will look into various different ways to perform software builds, with SAST enabled and how to speed up delivery of results to the software engineers.
