+ITS4 -- It's the software, stupid! (Security Scanner)
+
+ITS4 is a tool that statically scans C and C++ source code for
+potential security vulnerabilities. It is a command-line tool that
+works across Unix environments (hopefully) and will also work under
+Windows with CygWin installed. ITS4 scans code, looking for function
+calls that are potentially dangerous. For some calls, ITS4 tries to
+perform some code analysis to determine how risky the call is. In
+each case, ITS4 provides a problem report, including a short
+description of the potential problem and suggestions on how to fix the
+code.
