Klocwork Insight™ 9.5 Continues Momentum With Recognition From Embedded Software Community

New on-the-fly source code analysis capabilities earns Editor's Choice Award and Embedded Award 2012 nomination within weeks of release

Burlington, MA (Marketwire) - Klocwork Inc., the global leader in automated source code analysis (SCA) solutions for developing more secure and reliable software, announced today that Klocwork Insight 9.5 has been recognized by two leading award programs in the embedded industry. The product was honored with an Editor's Choice Award from Military Embedded Systems magazine and was a finalist for the Embedded Award 2012.

"Klocwork's newest release, which offers instantaneous analysis of source code in a reliable software, has the potential to change the way embedded software teams ensure the security and reliability of their software," said Chris Rommel, Vice President, Embedded Practices, VDC Research. "This new feature set should help further the industry's vision of reducing costs by accelerating software defect detection earlier in the development cycle."

Military Embedded Systems magazine, a leading publication focused on embedded tools and strategies for the military and aerospace industry, selected Klocwork Insight 9.5 for an Editor's Choice Award based on its new on-the-fly capabilities. According to the magazine, "Software developers have enough on their plates without having to spend undue time analyzing their code. Sure, there is traditional source code analysis, whether done manually or by using techniques such as static or dynamic analysis, but Klocwork Insight 9.5 is intriguing because it strays away from the centralized batch-processing analysis modus operandi and instead implements on-the-fly, as-it's-created code analysis."

Presented annually at Embedded World, the Embedded Award 2012 pays tribute to especially innovative products that are unique and future-orientated. From hundreds of submissions, the independent jury of industry experts nominated only four other companies in the Tools category to be considered for this year's award.

"Industry recognition like this shows that our investments in innovation are paying off," said Mike Laginski, Chief Executive Officer, Klocwork. "Seeing the positive reaction from the embedded software community within only a few weeks of release further validates our leadership position amongst embedded software development teams."
