Code Security

Source Code Review (SAST)

Manual and tool-assisted static analysis of application source code to find authentication flaws, injection points, weak cryptography, insecure deserialisation, hardcoded secrets, and vulnerable dependencies before code reaches production.

How it runs

  1. 01

    Scope & Threat Model

    Identify the repositories, languages, and components in scope. Build a lightweight threat model so the review focuses on the highest-risk code paths: authentication, payments, data export, and trust boundaries.

  2. 02

    Automated SAST

    Run static analysis tools tuned to the language and framework. Triage results to remove false positives and surface a reviewable set of high-confidence issues for manual follow-up.

  3. 03

    Manual Deep-Dive Review

    Manually review authentication, authorisation, session handling, input validation, output encoding, and cryptographic usage. Trace data flows from sources to sinks across the codebase.

  4. 04

    Dependency Review

    Inventory third-party libraries, identify known vulnerabilities, flag unmaintained components, and review how dependencies are integrated and trusted within the application.

  5. 05

    Secrets & Configuration Scan

    Scan history and configuration for hardcoded credentials, API keys, private keys, and unsafe defaults. Validate findings and check whether exposed secrets need rotation.

  6. 06

    Reporting & Developer Walkthrough

    Deliver findings with file and line references, severity ratings, and code-level remediation patterns. Run a walkthrough with the engineering team to make fixes stick.
