PRQA (Boston, MA) features updates to its static application security testing (SATS) solutions for the C and C++ languages, QA·C and QA·C++. PRQA is a founding member of the MISRA (Motor Industry Software Reliability Association) C and C++ committees and is noted in the industry for its MISRA compliance capabilities, which are used by automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers. With recently improved security capabilities, PRQA has complementing MISRA compliance with CERT C, CERT C++ as well as compatibility for CWE C and CWE C++, enabling compliance/compatibility enforcement that can be applied to both new and legacy source code, increasing code reusability and decreasing time to market. Additionally, PRQA is also involved in addressing processes and is one of the members of the RePhrase project (a funded project), which is looking to create a C++ coding standard for multi-threading and parallelism.
