Source Code Review

Overview of Source Code Review

A source code review service is a comprehensive and methodical assessment of an application’s source code. This process identifies errors, vulnerabilities, and inconsistencies that may have been missed during the initial development phase. A robust source code review service improves software integrity, quality, and overall system resilience.

Why Source Code Review Matters

Assiduous Review by Expert Team

Our expert team delivers a top-tier source code review service by thoroughly examining your application’s codebase. With a keen eye for both common and subtle security issues, our specialists detect complex flaws that automated tools often miss, providing unparalleled review precision.

Utilization of Advanced Techniques (SAST, DAST)

Our source code review service incorporates industry-leading methods such as Static Application Security Testing (SAST) and Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST). These techniques uncover weaknesses across both static code and runtime environments, offering deep insights into security vulnerabilities.

Early Identification and Addressing of Vulnerabilities

Our source code review service enables early detection of software issues, saving substantial costs and time that might be needed to fix problems post-deployment. This proactive approach ensures software stability from the foundation up.

Ensuring Application Safety

Security is at the core of our source code review service. Every section of your code is analyzed for risk factors, inefficiencies, and performance bottlenecks, ensuring the application’s safety and robustness.

Compliance with NCA ECC and SAMA CSF

We offer a compliance-driven source code review service that aligns with the National Cybersecurity Authority (NCA) Essential Cybersecurity Controls and the Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority (SAMA) Cyber Security Framework. This ensures regulatory compliance and reduces operational risks.

What is a Source Code Review Service?

A source code review service is a structured examination of application code to identify vulnerabilities, logic flaws, and violations of secure coding practices. It aims to produce software that is not only functional but also secure and compliant with industry standards.

Key Techniques Employed:

Static Application Security Testing (SAST)

SAST allows analysis of the code without execution, revealing architectural flaws and coding errors at the earliest development stage.

Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)

DAST identifies vulnerabilities by simulating attacks on running applications, catching issues that static testing may miss.

Manual Code Review

Manual review is an essential component of our source code review service. Our experts evaluate logic, syntax, and security controls to uncover hidden flaws.

Focus Areas of the Review:

Programming Languages

Our source code review service covers languages like Java, Python, JavaScript, and C#, each reviewed with attention to language-specific vulnerabilities.

Frameworks

We review the secure implementation of frameworks such as Angular, Spring, .NET, and React, ensuring proper integration and safe usage.

Custom Code

Custom code often hides unique risks. Our source code review service thoroughly examines it for any hidden or business-specific flaws.

Third-Party Libraries and Dependencies

We assess the security posture of external libraries and dependencies to prevent vulnerabilities from outdated or unsupported components.

Benefits of a Source Code Review Service

Our source code review service ensures that your application adheres to strict regulations like NCA ECC and SAMA CSF, a necessity for businesses in regulated industries.

Our source code review service mitigates threats by detecting vulnerabilities early in the development lifecycle—when fixes are easier and cheaper to implement.

Identifying and addressing issues during development significantly reduces long-term maintenance and patching costs.

Beyond security, our source code review service enhances code quality, making software more reliable and maintainable.

Frequent and detailed reviews fortify applications, increasing their ability to withstand modern cyberattacks.

We help developers avoid pitfalls such as those listed in the OWASP Top 10 by identifying and remediating them during the code review process.

By receiving feedback through our source code review service, development teams become more security-conscious and code more securely moving forward.

Our Source Code Review Process

  • 1-

    Scoping and Planning

We define the scope, objectives, and key components to be reviewed, tailoring the engagement to your project’s architecture and goals.

  • 2-

    Code Acquisition and Preparation

Your code is securely acquired and prepared for analysis in an isolated, controlled environment to maintain confidentiality.

  • 3-

    Automated Analysis (SAST)

Using top-tier tools, our team runs a static scan to identify vulnerabilities in the source code without executing it.

  • 4-

    Dynamic Analysis (DAST)

We simulate attacks in a runtime environment to expose vulnerabilities that only appear when the application is active.

  • 5-

    Reporting and Findings Analysis

Our experts manually review code logic, structure, and security controls, identifying contextual and business-logic vulnerabilities.

  • 6-

    Reporting and Findings Analysis
