Tor Software Down to Zero Bugs

The Tor Project (The Onion Router) announced in its blog that all the bugs that Coverity Scan static analysis found in its software were reduced to zero. The analysts had found 171 bugs in September that Tor developers have been successively fixing.
The Tor software has been anonymizing Internet traffic since a few years, a technique that defends against traffic surveillance by using the onion principle: encrypt and decrypt traffic over a network of distributed and untraceable proxy servers. For some users, such as bloggers in repressive regimes, the software can be literally life saving.
Coverity is a company that specializes in uncovering bugs with the help of some pinpoint software. For some open source firms the cost of using Coverity Scan hasn't been cheap, although the software has been provided for free under various sponsorship. A list of open source projects that have undergone the Coverity Scan is here, although the actual results are missing apparently because Coverity, by some blogger accounts, doesn't always keep its website up to date.
To try Tor for yourself, download it from here. However, many Linux distros already include Tor packages. For security purposes, first deactivate Java and JavaScript in your browser and combine Tor with the Privoxy web proxy.
