Manual Code Security Review

How to check security code?  We leverage advanced tools to streamline the security of your codebase in real time:

• Input validation. We examine how your code processes user input and ensure that every field is sanitized and validated to defend against injection attacks such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting (XSS).
• Authentication and authorization. Our experts stress test your authentication and authorization processes to ensure that only the right people have access — and no one else.
• Session management. From creation to termination, we carefully review your session management to eliminate vulnerabilities such as session hijacking or fixation.
• Error handling. Error messages are examined for unintentional sensitive information leaks to ensure that attackers are left in the dark.
• Cryptography. We evaluate your encryption practices, cryptographic algorithms and key management to ensure that your sensitive data remains securely encrypted.
• Data protection and sanitization. Sensitive data is audited for proper handling, encryption and compliance with confidentiality standards to protect what matters most.
• Secure coding standards. We measure your code against industry heavyweights such as OWASP and CERT to ensure it’s not only secure, but also exemplary.

Automated Code Review

• Static Application Security Testing (SAST) tools like SonarQube and Checkmarx scan your codebase in real time to detect vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and compliance issues — before they reach production.
• Dependency scanners like Snyk and WhiteSource identify and remediate risks in third-party libraries and ensure your application is free of inherited vulnerabilities.
• Code quality analysis platforms like Codacy and DeepSource monitor your code for security, maintainability and adherence to best practices.

We provide a detailed report with prioritized recommendations to strengthen your application code base.

Precision in application security.

65% of app vulnerabilities go unnoticed until runtime, putting businesses at serious risk. (Ponemon Institute)

Conventional security tests coding checklists often overlook threats that occur during the runtime of an application. Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) closes this gap by targeting vulnerabilities that emerge during runtime, ensuring that your application is resilient under real-world conditions.

We use advanced DAST methods and tools to protect your application at runtime:

• Real-time attack simulation. Tools such as Burp Suite and OWASP ZAP simulate real-world attack scenarios such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting to uncover vulnerabilities at runtime.
• Behavioral analysis. Applications are tested in their live environments to detect unexpected reactions, misconfigurations and gaps in session management.
• Continuous scanning. With solutions like AppScan and Acunetix, we enable continuous monitoring to detect new vulnerabilities as applications evolve.

We deliver a detailed vulnerability report with actionable insights that empower your team to protect your application against runtime threats. Our DAST approach doesn’t stop at identifying vulnerabilities, but prioritizes remediation. Combined with manual testing, it provides a holistic security code audit of your application’s posture.

Precision meets business reality.

Mitigating Risks in Your Codebase.

84% of security flaws stem from third-party components and open-source dependencies. (Synopsys)

Software development thrives on speed and efficiency, but relying on third-party and open source components also carries hidden risks. For development managers, overlooked vulnerabilities in dependencies can lead to security breaches, non-compliance fines and release delays — jeopardizing both deadlines and reputation.

We offer a proactive approach to managing open source and third-party risks:

• Comprehensive Dependency Inventory. Using tools such as Snyk, WhiteSource and Black Duck, we identify all third-party components in your application and ensure that no dependency goes unnoticed.
• Risk assessment and prioritization. Our analysis evaluates each component for known vulnerabilities, licensing issues and compatibility risks, helping you prioritize the fixes that will have the greatest impact on security and compliance.
• Real-time monitoring. Through continuous scanning and updating, we ensure that new vulnerabilities in your dependencies are detected immediately to protect your application as it evolves.

The risk of introducing vulnerabilities through third-party components — often hidden deep within your code — can undermine even the most efficient development workflows and lead to painful last-minute delays. We provide a detailed software composition analysis report that identifies vulnerabilities, licensing risks and actionable recommendations for remediation. With our expertise, you can confidently leverage open source innovation without compromising security or compliance.
