◦ Static code analysis, or static analysis, is a software verification activity
that analyzes source code for quality, reliability, and security without
executing the code. Using static analysis, you can identify defects and
security vulnerabilities that can compromise the safety and security of
your application.
◦ Static Code Analysis (also known as Source Code Analysis) is usually
performed as part of a Code Review (also known as white-box testing)
and is carried out at the Implementation phase of a Security
Development Lifecycle (SDL).
◦ For example, static code analysis is a form of white-box testing that can
help identify security issues in source code. On the other hand, dynamic
code analysis is a form of black-box vulnerability scanning that allows
software teams to scan running applications and identify vulnerabilities.
◦ Static code analysis can be performed manually by a developer or
automatically by a tool that generates reports and alerts. Some examples of
static code analysis tools are SonarQube, Coverity, and Fortify.
◦ Static analysis, also called static code analysis, is a method of computer program
debugging that is done by examining the code without executing the program.
The process provides an understanding of the code structure and can help ensure
that the code adheres to industry standards.
◦ Source code analysis is one of the most thorough methods available for auditing
software. A scanner is used to find potential trouble spots in source code, and then
these spots are manually audited for security concerns. A number of free source code
scanners are available, such as Flawfinder, RATS, and ITS 4.
◦ There is usually some form of static analysis built in to most any IaC framework that you
may be using. There may be commands to check syntax, ensure that valid parameter
values are used, and automatically style the code. You may also be able to perform
dry-run deployments to inspect what changes would take place in the environment or
to detect errors before actually deploying any infrastructure changes.

Static Code Analysis is a method of analyzing the source code of
programs without running them. It can discover formatting problems, null pointer
dereferencing, and other simple scenarios.
Static code analysis is the process of examining source code (without actually
executing it) to identify potential defects, security vulnerabilities.
Static testing is an approach to testing the software application without
executing the actual code. This is performed at the early stage of development
to identify the issues in the project documents in multiple ways, namely reviews,
walkthroughs, and inspections.
Static testing essentially gives an assessment of code, while dynamic testing will
try to find active bugs.

◦ SonarQube is one of the more popular static code analysis tools out there. It is
an open-source platform for continuous inspection of code quality and
performs automatic reviews via static code analysis. In addition, it can detect
and report bugs, code smells, and numerous other security vulnerabilities.
◦ Our first tool of choice, PMD, scans Java source code and looks for potential
problems. These can range from breaking naming conventions and unused
code or variables to performance and complexity of code — while not
forgetting lots of possible bugs that could be spread around your code.
◦ Like a spell checker, SonarLint highlights Bugs and Security Vulnerabilities as
you write code, with clear remediation guidance so you can fix them before
the code is even committed.
◦ The Static Code Analysis Tools is a Maven plugin that executes the Maven
plugins for SpotBugs, Checkstyle and PMD and generates a merged . Html
report. Execute mvn clean install –P check from the root of your project.
◦ Static code analysis (also known as source code analysis) is performed as part
of a code review. Static code analysis commonly refers to running static code
analysis tools to find potential vulnerabilities in nonrunning code. Static code
analysis uses techniques like taint checking and data flow analysis
◦ Inconsistencies in code style conventions and standards. It can be as simple as
enforcing consistent indentation and variable names or as complex as
enforcing compliance with the MISRA or CERT Secure Coding Standards
◦ Resource leaks such as a failure to release allocated memory, which can
eventually lead to program crashes or failure to close files
◦ Incorrect usage of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs)
◦ Common security vulnerabilities such as those identified by the Open Web
Application Security Project (OWASP) or Common Weakness Enumeration
(CWE)
