Contextual software analysis is a powerful approach to helping organizations deliver resilient, responsive, and secure applications while preventing business risks resulting from vulnerabilities within the software systems. It works by analyzing all components of a software system together, using the resulting context to make smart observations about the system, find ways to unlock its potential, and identify possible vulnerabilities.
Organizations should deploy contextual software analysis to gain insight into systems whenever they scale beyond the ability of keeping the whole system in the heads of one or two architects/senior developers. (See the Cutter report “Mitigating Software-Related Business Risk Requires Systems Perspective” for a general overview of software risk management and the concept of software risk as business risk.)
