Hardware-independent automotive software testing
Automate your software testing with an AI-driven fuzzing platform for early bug and vulnerability detection, all without hardware dependencies. Enable your developers to reproduce and fix issues in minutes, not weeks.
Three reasons to elevate your automotive software security with fuzz testing
Find critical bugs and their root cause in minutes
White-box fuzzing is the fastest way to detect memory corruption errors and find their root cause. It analyzes source code and shows exactly where and how an issue occurs.
Enable Software-in-the-Loop testing
With Code Intelligence, you can test Classic AUTOSAR Applications at the system level by using our simulator and identify real-time bugs without the need for specialized hardware.
Comply with industry standards
Fuzz testing is highly recommended by ISO/SAE 21434 'Road vehicles — Cybersecurity engineering', and Automotive SPICE for Cybersecurity.
Vulnerabilities in automotive software are increasing
- Despite widespread static analysis use, every year since 2019 there has been more than 200 common Vulnerabilities and Exposures identifiers (CVEs) related to automotive components and services reported.
- The most frequent issues are memory corruption errors, e.g. buffer overflow, out-of-bounds write, out-of-bounds read, use after free.
- Vulnerabilities found too late can lead to delayed releases, costly over-the-air updates, or even recalls. In 2023, automotive software was involved in nearly 15% of recall incidents.
Why Static Code Analysis alone can't prevent all vulnerabilities
1. Static Analysis (SAST) generates many false positives.
It reports issues that aren’t actually a problem and produces duplicates.
2. Static Analysis can’t detect all types of vulnerabilities.
Because it doesn’t analyze the program during execution, SAST can’t detect dynamic or runtime-specific issues such as complex buffer overflows, use-after-free, double-free errors, heap corruption, and others.

Fuzz Testing with Code Intelligence
Code Intelligence connects to the source code and, unlike static analysis (SAST), analyzes code when executed.
Every flagged issue represents an actual issue in the running code. Most are highly critical, e.g. buffer overflows, memory corruption, and leaks.
All uncovered issues are pinpointed to the exact line of code in the repository and accompanied by inputs that triggered an issue and clear actions to remediate those. So you can quickly identify the root cause, start fixing them, and release features faster.
CI Spark, a built-in AI assistant that leverages large language models (LLMs) and static code analysis, automatically writes thousands of test cases and generates inputs and mocks for all dependencies.
CI Spark is also helpful in identifying top candidates for fuzzing.
Code Intelligence leverages feedback about the software under test to achieve the highest code coverage. Subsequent executions automatically generate new test cases to detect additional paths, thereby increasing code coverage.
This ensures your development teams know how much of their code was actually executed during a test and which parts need additional testing.
Integrate Code Intelligence with your CI/CD pipeline to automatically test your software with every pull request. This ensures regressions and release blockers are identified long before reaching production.

Why Volkswagen's CARIAD leverages fuzz testing
CARIAD has been building a unified software platform for all Volkswagen brands, providing them with reliable software and digital best practices.
By introducing AI-guided white-box fuzz testing to uncover deeply hidden bugs and security vulnerabilities, CARIAD was able to find and fix potentially dangerous issues early in the development process.
