What Happens During a Secure Code Review?

A secure code review is a process of examining and evaluating the source code of an application or system to identify security vulnerabilities and potential risks so that you can better mitigate emerging risks created by the sophistication of attacks.

A Secure Code Review Can Help You:

Strengthen Your Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC)

Independent code reviews performed during your SDLC at key audit points can help ensure you incorporate security considerations throughout your development process. 

Schellman’s Secure Code Review Methodology

When conducting a secure code review, we combine manual code analysis with automated static analysis tools to thoroughly evaluate the most critical features and functionality of your code. Our analysis will identify security issues, such as hard-coded credentials or encryption implementation flaws.

Our secure code review methodology involves the following steps:

1. Preparation: First, we’ll define the scope of the code review, establish review objectives and standards, and gather all relevant information and resources.

2. Threat Modeling: Then, we’ll identify potential security threats to your application and assess its risk levels.

3. Code Analysis: At this point, we’ll conduct a line-by-line review of the source code, using the aforementioned automated tools and manual techniques to identify potential security vulnerabilities.

4. Report Generation: After our analysis is concluded, we’ll document all issues found during the code review and prioritize them based on their risk levels. 

5. Remediation: Using the actionable remediation strategies we’ll provide, we’ll work with your development team to implement necessary changes to the code and address any concerns at the development level. 

6. Retest: Finally, we’ll verify that the changes made to the code resolve the security vulnerabilities and do not introduce new issues.
