Coverity SCAN is Again Available

Coverity SCAN Service Community:

As you may be aware, there recently was an interruption in the availability of 
the Coverity Scan service. In February 2018, we discovered that servers used 
for the Coverity Scan service were accessed by an unauthorized third-party. The 
access appears to have started earlier in the month. We suspect that the access 
was to utilize our computing power for cryptocurrency mining. We have not found 
evidence that database files or artifacts uploaded by the open source community 
users of the Coverity Scan service were accessed. We retained a well-known 
computer forensics company to assist us in our investigation.

We have closed the method of access, and the Coverity Scan service is again 
available as a free service to the open source community. The Coverity Scan 
service data is backed up frequently, and Coverity Scan service data will be 
restored. We regret any inconvenience caused by the downtime of the Coverity 
Scan service.

We take our commitment to the Open Source community seriously. To that end, we 
are asking that all Coverity Scan users reset their passwords to regain access 
to the service. We are continually assessing and improving our systems and 
practices in this environment, and will work with the Coverity Scan Service 
community in this effort. 

Please note that the servers in question were not connected to any other 
Synopsys computer networks. This should have no impact on customers of our 
commercial products, and this event did not put any Synopsys corporate data or 
intellectual property at risk.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at 
scan-ad...@synopsys.com.
