  • Patent number: 10482262
    Abstract: An application analysis platform enables automatic generation of abstract program representations (APRs) that are amenable to static analyses for finding security vulnerabilities. The APR is generated automatically, preferably from an existing build system or a source repository, and then encapsulated into a binary archival format for consumption by a static analysis tool, which operates on-premises or in the cloud. The abstract program representation is a highly compact version of the actual source code it represents. The archival format obfuscates the source code that is subjected to the analysis, thus protecting it from being reverse-engineered when moved off-premises or otherwise shared with other users, teams and even organizations.

  • Patent number: 9779252
    Abstract: A cloud-based static analysis security tool that is accessible by a set of application development environments is augmented to provide for anonymous knowledge sharing to facilitate reducing security vulnerabilities. To the end, a crowdsourcing platform and social network are associated with the application development environments. Access to the social network platform by users of the application development environments is enabled. The anonymous access enables users to post messages without exposing sensitive data associated with a particular application development environment. As the static analysis security tool is used, a knowledgebase of information regarding identified security findings, fix priorities, and so forth, is continuously updated. Social network content (e.g., in the form of analytics, workflow recommendations, and the like) is then published from the knowledgebase to provide users with security knowledge generated by the tool from the set of application development environments.

  • Patent number: 8621041
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to Web services construction and provide a novel and non-obvious method, system and computer program product for message-oriented Web services construction. A method for the message oriented construction of a Web service can include graphically assembling a selection of message flow primitives defining an operation for a Web service, interconnecting selected ones of the message flow primitives to represent a flow of messages from one interconnected message flow primitive to another interconnected message flow primitive, and generating Web service logic from the selection of message flow primitives. The method further can include interpreting or executing the Web service logic in response to receiving a request to invoke the Web service.
