Code Review

What is Code Review?

Security code review is an in-depth analysis of the application's code aimed to detect security vulnerabilities by inspecting the actual code of a given system. It is used to detect security bugs, reveal hidden backdoors in the code and reach full coverage of a given system’s vulnerabilities. The test will attempt to find weaknesses, the source of which is insufficient secure coding policies, business logic flaws, internal structures and the systems design.

Whether used to detect security bugs as a thorough alternative for a penetration test or as the means for detecting backdoors in the code, security code review is a complicated task that must be performed by a well exprienced auditor. We provide exactly that. 

 

Secure coding best practices:

Discovering vulnerabilities is done according to OWASP and WASC methodologies. A partial list of some of them:

User authentication
Authorizations
Input validation mechanisms
Configuration data protection
Information confidentiality
Information integrity
Cryptography and key management
Password policy
Session management
System administration interface protection
Secure access to databases
Endpoint protection for sensitive data
Runtime error management
Auditing & logging

 

And many more other vulnerabilities that can cause significant damage to your company.
