JProfiler
ej-technologies GmbH
When you profile, you need the most powerful tool you can get. At the same time, you do not want to spend time learning how to use the tool. JProfiler is just that: simple and powerful at the same time. Configuring sessions is straight-forward, third party integrations make getting started a breeze and profiling data is presented in a natural way. On all levels, JProfiler has been carefully designed to help you get started with solving your problems. Database calls are the top reasons for performance problems in business applications. JProfiler's JDBC and JPA/Hibernate probes as well as the NoSQL probes for MongoDB, Cassandra and HBase show the reasons for slow database access and how slow statements are called by your code. From the JDBC timeline view that shows you all JDBC connections with their activities, through the hot spots view that shows you slow statements to various telemetry views and a list of single events. -

DoubleCheck Code Analysis
Green Hills Software
When it comes to ensuring software quality, reliability, and security in today's sophisticated code bases, traditional debugging and testing methods simply fall short. Automated tools such as static source code analyzers are more effective in finding defects that could result in buffer overflows, resource leaks, and other security and reliability issues. This class of defects are often not detected by compilers during standard builds, run-time testing, or typical field operation. While other source code analyzers run as separate tools, DoubleCheck is an integrated static analyzer, built into the Green Hills C/C++ compiler. DoubleCheck leverages accurate and efficient analysis algorithms that have been tuned and field-proven in 30+ years of producing embedded development tools. DoubleCheck can be used as a single integrated tool to perform compilation and defect analysis in the same pass. -

Zenity
Zenity
Enterprise copilots and low-code/no-code development platforms make it easier and faster than ever to create powerful business AI applications and bots. Generative AI makes it easier and faster for users of all technical backgrounds to spur innovation, automate mundane processes, and craft efficient business processes. Similar to the public cloud, AI and low-code platforms secure the underlying infrastructure, but not the resources or data built on top. As thousands of apps, automation, and copilots are built, prompt injection, RAG poisoning, and data leakage risks dramatically increase. Unlike traditional application development, copilots and low-code do not incorporate dedicated time for testing, analyzing, and measuring security. Unlock professional and citizen developers to safely create the things they need while meeting security and compliance standards. We’d love to chat with you about how your team can unleash copilots and low-code development. -

CodeSonar
CodeSecure
CodeSonar employs a unified dataflow and symbolic execution analysis that examines the computation of the complete application. By not relying on pattern matching or similar approximations, CodeSonar's static analysis engine is extraordinarily deep, finding 3-5 times more defects on average than other static analysis tools. Unlike many software development tools, such as testing tools, compilers, configuration management, etc., SAST tools can be integrated into a team's development process at any time with ease. SAST technologies like CodeSonar simply attach to your existing build environments to add analysis information to your verification process. Like a compiler, CodeSonar does a build of your code using your existing build environment, but instead of creating object code, CodeSonar creates an abstract model of your entire program. From the derived model, CodeSonar’s symbolic execution engine explores program paths, reasoning about program variables and how they relate. -
25
Jedi
Jedi
Jedi is a static analysis tool for Python that is typically used in IDEs/editors plugins. Jedi has a focus on autocompletion and goto functionality. Other features include refactoring, code search and finding references. Jedi has a simple API to work with. There is a reference implementation as a VIM-Plugin. Autocompletion in your REPL is also possible, IPython uses it natively and for the CPython REPL you can install it. Jedi is well tested and bugs should be rare. A Script is the base for completions, goto or whatever you want to do with Jedi. The counter part of this class is Interpreter, which works with actual dictionaries and can work with a REPL. This class should be used when a user edits code in an editor. Most methods have a line and a column parameter. Lines in Jedi are always 1-based and columns are always zero based. To avoid repetition they are not always documented. -
26
Clair
Clair
Clair is an open-source project for the static analysis of vulnerabilities in application containers (currently including OCI and docker). Clients use the Clair API to index their container images and can then match it against known vulnerabilities. Our goal is to enable a more transparent view of the security of the container-based infrastructure. Thus, the project was named Clair after the French term which translates to clear, bright, and transparent. Manifests are Clair's representation of a container image. Clair leverages the fact that OCI Manifests and Layers are content-addressed to reduce duplicated work. -
