Source Code Review

Comprehensive static analysis of application source code to identify security vulnerabilities and coding flaws before deployment

What is Source Code Review?

Source code review is the most thorough method of application security testing, examining the actual code that powers your applications. Our expert security analysts perform comprehensive manual review of your source code to identify security vulnerabilities, coding flaws, and logic errors that automated tools often miss, providing deep insights into your application's security posture at the fundamental level.
