The contract is shared with Stanford University and Symantec Corporation. Coverity also announced a major expansion of the analysis scope, increasing the number of open source projects involved to 150, up from 50. In the first year, developers fixed an average of 16 defects a day. Many of the new projects are so widely used that a single serious defect could affect millions of people. For example, Coverity added regular scans of zlib, a compression program used in more than 500 applications, including MSN Messenger, Microsoft Office, QuickTime and Apache.
