Audit & Consulting · Secure Code Review (SAST)

Secure code review: security at the source-code level.

We analyse your source code — in-depth manual review and SAST tooling — to detect vulnerabilities before they reach production, and deliver a prioritised remediation plan.

Our approach — a continuous cycle

What it involves

Fix the flaw at its root.

A secure code review examines your source code to identify vulnerabilities where they originate, before they ever reach production. Where a penetration test challenges the application at runtime, a code review traces each flaw back to the exact line to fix.

We combine static analysis (SAST) with an expert manual review, grounded in the OWASP (Top 10, ASVS) and CWE frameworks.

  • Vulnerabilities pinpointed down to the exact line of code
  • SAST automation combined with human expertise
  • Fewer false positives thanks to manual review
  • Fix recommendations your developers can action directly
What we analyse

The flaws at the heart of your code.

From the most common vulnerability classes to the subtlest logic errors.

Injections (SQL, command, LDAP)

Queries built without parameterisation and unvalidated input opening the door to injection attacks.

Authentication & session management

Authentication mechanisms, tokens and session lifecycle examined in detail.

Hard-coded secrets & sensitive data

Keys, passwords and tokens hard-coded in the source code or repositories.

Vulnerable dependencies (SCA)

Outdated third-party libraries or known CVEs across your software supply chain.

Access controls & business logic

Insufficient authorisation and logic flaws that bypass your business rules.

Cryptography & misconfiguration

Weak algorithms, cryptographic misuse and degraded security settings.

The process

From scoping to remediation.

A structured approach that blends automated tooling with human expertise.

  1. 1

    Scoping

    Scope, technologies, repository access and objectives defined together with you.

  2. 2

    Static analysis (SAST)

    Running the code through SAST and SCA tooling to map out weaknesses.

  3. 3

    Manual review

    Expert verification, false-positive triage and business-logic analysis.

  4. 4

    Reporting

    A prioritised report (CVSS/CWE) and a technical debrief with your teams.

  5. 5

    Remediation

    Concrete recommendations per vulnerability and verification of the fixes.

Deliverables

An actionable report.
