Pen Testing / Secure Code Review
Secure code
review.
Manual, expert-led source-code review against language-specific weakness taxonomies (CWE, SANS Top 25). Threat-model driven — we read the code the way an attacker would, not the way a linter does.
A deep, hand-executed audit of your application’s source code, performed by engineers who have spent careers exploiting code like yours. We focus where it matters — authentication, authorization, cryptography, input handling, deserialization, and the integration seams between trusted and untrusted components.
SAST tools surface thousands of low-signal findings. They miss authorization gaps, logic flaws, unsafe defaults, and the dangerous-API-used-correctly-but-wrong-place patterns that actually get exploited. Human review catches what tooling cannot — and contextualizes what tooling reports.
Findings mapped to the Common Weakness Enumeration and the SANS / CWE Top 25 most dangerous weaknesses.
Reviewed against the OWASP Application Security Verification Standard requirements relevant to your stack.
Review prioritized by data-flow analysis — we read the code that handles the trust boundaries first.
How we run the engagement.
Architecture & threat model
We sit with your engineers, map data flows, trust boundaries, and the components worth reviewing first.
Targeted manual review
Authentication, authorization, crypto, deserialization, input handling, third-party integration points — read line by line.
Tooling assist
SAST and semantic-search tooling used as accelerators — every finding human-validated before it ships in a report.
Reporting & remediation pairing
Per-finding write-up with file/line references, exploitation context, and a remediation pattern your engineers can copy.
What lands on your desk.
