Copyright 2003 - 2007 by the University of Maryland. Free software licensed under the LGPL. The eclipse plugin for FindBugs was initially contributed by Peter Friese.

FindBugs is sponsored by Fortify Software and SureLogic.

Fortify Software sells security tools, including Fortify Source Code Analysis, which scans for security vunerabilities. Fortify Software now provides JOR (Java Open Review), a free static analysis and on-line reviewing service to selected open source projects. JOR provides results both from FindBugs and from Fortify's static analysis for security vunerabilities.

SureLogic provides a suite of static and dynamic tools designed to find concurrency errors, such as data races and design errors. Starting Fall 2007, SureLogic will provide training, consulting and support for FindBugs on a commercial basis, and will be contributing to the FindBugs open source effort.

Additional support provided by Google, Sun Microsystems, National Science Foundation grants ASC9720199 and CCR-0098162, and by an 2004 IBM Eclipse Innovation award.
