摘要:

随着安全性对许多公司变得越来越重要,静态程序分析(SPA)工具的流行程度也在不断提高。在本文中,我们的目标是在德国的公司之间使用SPA工具,重点是安全性。我们给出了对当前问题的见解,以及开发人员配置工具以克服这些问题的意愿。与以前的研究相比,我们的研究考虑了公司的文化和使用SPA工具的过程。我们进行了一项在线调查,有256份回复,并对来自多家公司的17名产品负责人和高管进行了半结构化访谈。我们的研究结果显示了工具使用的多样性。只有一半的受访者使用SPA工具。免费工具在软件开发人员中更受欢迎。在大多数公司,软件开发人员被鼓励使用免费工具,而商业工具可以要求。然而,在我们的采访中,产品所有者和执行官报告说,他们的开发人员不要求新的工具。我们还发现,很少在每个版本上使用工具进行自动安全检查。

英文摘要:

As security becomes more relevant for many companies, the popularity of static program analysis (SPA) tools is increasing. In this paper, we target the use of SPA tools among companies in Germany with a focus on security. We give insights on the current issues and the developers' willingness to configure the tools to overcome these issues. Compared to previous studies, our study considers the companies' culture and processes for using SPA tools. We conducted an online survey with 256 responses and semi-structured interviews with 17 product owners and executives from multiple companies. Our results show a diversity in the usage of tools. Only half of our survey participants use SPA tools. The free tools tend to be more popular among software developers. In most companies, software developers are encouraged to use free tools, whereas commercial tools can be requested. However, the product owners and executives in our interviews reported that their developers do not request new tools. We also find out that automatic security checks with tools are rarely performed on each release.
