C-STAT vs. Coverity Static Analysis vs. OpenText Static Application Security Testing vs. Python Comparison Chart

Static analysis helps you to find potential issues in your code by doing an analysis on the source code level. C-STAT includes almost 700 checks in total, some comply with rules as defined by MISRA C:2012, MISRA C++:2008 and MISRA C:2004 and more than 250 checks mapping to issues covered by CWE. In addition, it checks compliance with the coding standard CERT C for secure coding. C-STAT executes fast and provides you with comprehensive and detailed error information. You don't need to worry about complex tool setup and struggle with language support and general build issues. C-STAT is completely integrated in the IAR Embedded Workbench IDE and enables you to easy ensure code quality in your daily development flow. It's available for most IAR Embedded Workbench products. Static analysis finds potential issues in code by doing an analysis on the source code level. In addition to raising the code quality, the analysis also aids alignment with industry coding standards.

OpenText Static Application Security Testing (SAST) identifies and remediates security vulnerabilities in source code early in the software development lifecycle. It supports extensive language coverage and integrates seamlessly with popular CI/CD tools such as Jenkins, Azure DevOps, Jira, and Visual Studio. The platform uses advanced static code analysis and AI-driven insights to prioritize risks and reduce false positives, enabling developers to focus on fixing critical vulnerabilities efficiently. With its customizable code analysis and rule sets, it helps reduce development time by catching issues early. OpenText SAST complies with industry standards like OWASP and offers flexible deployment options including SaaS, private cloud, and on-premises. This comprehensive approach enhances application security without sacrificing development speed or accuracy.
