Speaking Topic: Coverity Scan Project Update

David is also a former Security Officer for NetBSD.

Abstract

The talk will cover how we work with the open source developers to benefit their code, how projects get involved in the Scan. We'll also do some overview of the progress the projects have made, and the expansion and introduction of new features in the Coverity Scan. Lastly, we'll look forward at the new functionality coming in 2008, including new information for viewers who aren't developers on the open source projects.
