Secure Code Review
Assessment of source code with the purpose of recognizing potential security vulnerabilities linked to features and design, as well as ascertaining the exact causes, is known as secure code review. Owing to the rising complexity of applications and the introduction of new technologies, traditional testing methods may not be able to detect all security weaknesses in the applications. To increase the likelihood of spotting the flaws, one must gain insight into the code of the application, external components, and configurations. Additionally, this thorough examination of the application code assists in deciding upon the exact remediation techniques to prevent the security flaws.
Secure code review is a process of inspecting the source code of an application to guarantee that appropriate security and logical controls are present, work as intended, and have been called upon in the right places. It is a means of guaranteeing that the application has been designed to be ‘self-protecting’ in its environment. Secure code review enables a company to guarantee that developers are adhering to secure development techniques. Normally, a penetration test should not expose any extra application vulnerabilities regarding the created code after the application has been subject to an authentic security code review. At the very least, only a few issues should be found. All security code reviews are a combination of human effort and technology support.
