It is, however those same companies aren't dialing full safe ahead knob either, hence why Microsoft just recently published a set of secure coding guidelines for C and C++.

Does it have tooling to enforce those guidelines? If not, how is it better than someone saying "write correct code" and calling it a guideline?

Quite annoying to read in my native language, German. Do they use automatic translations? It's full of grammar errors and mistranslations.
