Synopsys Software Integrity Group is pleased to have been named a leader in software security by industry analysts. But we’re even more thrilled when the development community recognizes us for our accomplishments. Here are a few software security awards we received this year that we’re particularly proud of.

2018 software security awards for the Software Integrity Group

Synopsys Software Integrity Group has been named a leader in software security by industry analysts such as Gartner and Forrester. But while we’re happy that the professional critics can confirm the value of our solutions, we’re even more thrilled when the development community recognizes us for our accomplishments. After all, as the SD Times says, “Leadership and innovation can’t be measured by stock valuations or analyst reports.” Here are a few software security awards we received this year that we’re particularly proud of.

2018 SD Times 100

2018 SD Times 100Online magazine SD Times (Software Development Times) has recognized “the top innovators and leaders in multiple software development industry areas” every year since 2003. Nominations for organizations (commercial and noncommercial), open source projects, and other initiatives come from editors at D2 Emerge (SD Times’ parent company) and SD Times readers. Then the editorial staff at SD Times evaluates nominees for innovation and leadership, as shown by these criteria and others: offerings, reputation, industry buzz, and ability to set a direction for developers and an agenda for the industry.

Software that performs poorly can cost you customers. Software delivered with vulnerabilities can cost your customers. These are the top companies working to protect your data and ensure your customers get a phenomenal user experience.
SD Times

On Aug. 1, SD Times announced the 100 companies receiving 2018 SD Times 100 “Best in Show” awards in 10 categories, including Development Tools, DevOps, and Testing. Synopsys won in the category Security & Performance. And we’re very pleased to have repeated our performance from the last six years (2012–2017), when both Black Duck and Synopsys (Coverity) received software security awards every year before joining forces last December.
