E-cast: Secure at the source: Integrating static analysis into embedded developers desktop

Summary: Security defects that lead to exploitable vulnerabilities are often introduced during design and development either through in-house development, or outsourced and other 3rd party source code, including open source technology. The cost of fixing defects increases dramatically the longer they go undetected and security defects can become very expensive to fix for products already shipped, up to 100-1000 times more.
