DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting
By Synopsys - 10 Oct, 2018 - Comments: 0

DOM-based attacks are a misunderstood, serious, and pervasive source of risk in contemporary web applications. The language that drives the web, JavaScript, is easy to understand and hard to master; junior and senior developers routinely make mistakes. Mix difficulty to master with an enormous attack surface, and you have the perfect storm for widespread vulnerability. These risks expose web ap... » read more

Deliver DO-178C compliant software on budget and on schedule
By Synopsys - 03 Oct, 2018 - Comments: 0

Ensuring safety in civilian airborne software is an ongoing challenge in the increasingly software-intensive aviation industry, yet accidents and fatalities caused by software are nearly unheard of in civil aviation. This impressive track record is due largely to the DO-178 standard. However, successful DO-178C certification involves significant costs and timelines. To avoid cost overruns an... » read more
