Problem solving

CodeScoring meets the critical need for secure and efficient software development by providing advanced tools to analyze both open source and proprietary code components. This comprehensive analysis identifies vulnerabilities, ensures license compliance, and optimizes code quality. This is especially crucial for critical infrastructure. Software deployed in essential facilities, such as electrical networks, must be secured from the outset. By thoroughly inspecting the code before and after implementation, CodeScoring safeguards against threats, ensuring reliable and trouble-free operation.

How it works:

  1. Tracking Code Components: CodeScoring finds all the parts of the software, including open-source and custom code, and checks if they have any problems.
  2. Improving Code Quality: It spots duplicated code, threats and complex parts of the software, helping developers to clean up and simplify their code, making it run better and use less energy.
  3. Security Checks: By identifying security issues early, CodeScoring helps developers fix them quickly, making the software safer to use.
