# Secure Code Review

> Manual + SAST review to catch vulnerabilities at the source.

Find vulnerabilities before they ship. We combine static analysis with expert manual review of your most security-sensitive code - auth, crypto, input handling, access control - and pair findings with secure-coding guidance.

## Outcomes

- Manual review of auth, crypto, access control and input handling
- SAST integration and false-positive triage
- Secure-coding guidance for your team
- Findings mapped to CWE and OWASP

## Process

01. **Scope** - Identify the highest-risk modules and threat surface.
02. **Automated pass** - SAST tooling establishes a baseline; we triage noise.
03. **Manual review** - Expert review of sensitive flows and dangerous patterns.
04. **Report & coach** - CWE-mapped findings plus a secure-coding knowledge session.

## Deliverables

- Code review report (CWE/OWASP mapped)
- SAST configuration recommendations
- Secure-coding guidance

## Standards

OWASP ASVS, CWE Top 25, SANS


## Overview

Remediating security vulnerabilities after deployment is incredibly expensive. A secure code review identifies security flaws early in the software development lifecycle (SDLC), analyzing the application's source code for logical flaws, cryptographic errors, and insecure coding patterns.

We combine high-fidelity Static Application Security Testing (SAST) tools with extensive manual review by senior security engineers. We focus our manual efforts on high-risk logical components - such as authentication modules, authorization checks, payment flows, and cryptographic implementations - to deliver actionable remediation guides.


## What we cover

### Authentication Logic
Verifying secure password hashing, token generation, MFA checks, and session management code.

### Authorization Checks
Ensuring rigorous access control checks are enforced on every backend controller and API resolver.

### Data Sanitization
Reviewing input validation and output encoding patterns to prevent SQLi, XSS, and command injections.

### Cryptographic Practices
Scanning for hardcoded secrets, weak encryption algorithms, and insecure key storage.

### Business Logic Flows
Manually tracing complex multi-step processes like shopping carts and password resets for bypass routes.

### Dependency Hygiene
Analyzing third-party libraries and packages for known vulnerable components and license compliance.
