Source Code Review

Establish a customizable and integrated code review process that works for you, with or without formal rules.

Source Code Review is performed to identify the various security issues that are present in the source code of the applications that form the core business logic of the application or an integral part of the organization’s environment.
With the software literally eating the world and increase the use of the mobile applications, and software technologies across several areas, securing the source code of the application will enhance the overall security of the application and improves the security posture of the organization.
Software developers are required to include best security practices as a part of their entire software development life cycle to ensure the security of the source code Hence, source code review assessments for all internal and external-facing applications helps the developers remediate vulnerabilities that are found during the process thereby and enhance the overall security of the software application.

Why is secure code review important?

Secure code review is a critical process employed by the most successful development teams. It can:

Reduce the number of delivery defects found at a later stage in the SDLC
Decrease the amount of time developers spend fixing late-stage defects, thereby increasing productivity
Reduce the number of bugs and security vulnerabilities going into production
Improve consistency across codebases and increase maintainability
Improve collaboration, knowledge sharing, and developer productivity, and lessons learned can help inform future code development
Improve ROI by helping make processes faster and more secure, and using fewer resources and time.
