An account (or also user) is either a GitHub user or a . You can only log-in in TrustInSoft CI as a GitHub user, then your organization will automatically be shown in menus if the correct permissions have been granted.
An analysis is a verification of a program with . This verification is quite similar to a symbolic execution of the program, starting from a given , to ensures to detect all by using formal methods.
In TrustInSoft CI, an analysis is a part of a . It is recommended to add as many analyses as possible to cover all possible behaviors of the analyzed program.
The Analyses configuration is a piece of JSON information describing how to perform . Each require to have an Analysis configuration. The Analyses configuration is a part of the to configure a inside TrustInSoft CI.

A project is a GitHub repository registered in TrustInSoft CI. A project can only be registered by an owner of the associated GitHub repository.
Undefined behaviors are defined by the C and C++ standards. They usually correspond to illegal operations and may lead to crashes and security vulnerabilities. Their effects are also highly dependent on the interactions with the compilers and their optimizations.
A Committed configuration is one of the . This Committed configuration allows to write the configuration of the inside a .trustinsoft directory in the GitHub repository.
Unlike the , the Committed configuration allows to have a different configuration for each and of the project.
The entry point of an analysis is the function where the begins. Usually, the entry point of programs is the mainfunction. With , any function can be used as the entry point of the analysis as soon as its inputs can be .
A Global configuration is one of the . The Global configuration allows to write the configuration directly in TrustInSoft CI in the 's settings page without modifying the associated GitHub repository.
Unlike the , the Global configuration is common to all and of the project (except if a Committed configuration is detected for the reference or build).
Once a project registered, one or several should be added in order to run for the respective reference.
A reference is either a branch, a tag or a pull request associated to a or GitHub repository.
TrustInSoft CI Analyzer is a version of dedicated to the TrustInsoft CI online service to analyze GitHub repositories.
TrustInSoft CI Analyzer is run during for each . Then, its Graphical User Interface can be used to in details the result of a single analysis.
detects all major families of undefined behaviors including but not restricted to buffer overflow, dangling pointer, invalid pointer operation, division by zero, uninitialized memory read and arithmetic overflow.
