Gain an assessment of the full source code of your applications and their dependent components.
There are a few vulnerability classes that are either extremely difficult to identify via dynamic testing or are extremely difficult to accurately identify via static analysis and result in a manual review of the source code for validation.
With a Secure Source Code Review, our expert team conducts an in-depth examination of your application’s source code, identifying vulnerabilities that often go unnoticed in dynamic testing of the running application. We use multiple techniques to identify vulnerabilities that expose the greatest amount of attack surface to uncover and report potential risks, aiming to significantly reduce your application’s susceptibility to security threats such as:
Source code reviews require expertise with not only common vulnerability patterns and exploitation techniques at an implementation level, but also many different languages, frameworks and coding paradigms.
Our team follows a highly-structured methodology to ensure a thorough review of the application source code. Our process, which includes information gathering, code review, validation and notification, ensures a detailed and effective security assessment.
A technical analysis of an application’s source code and dependent components is intended to expose insecure pieces (and reuses) of code. It also uncovers potentially hidden functionality that an adversary could leverage to compromise an application and gain access to sensitive information.
With the increasing dynamic functionality found in modern applications, we typically perform a hybrid application security assessment in parallel to our source code review. This approach further enhances our ability to craft payloads for testing and allows us to verify whether issues identified from a code review actually carry the risk of exploitation in the live, running application.
Every member of GuidePoint’s Application Security Practice offers a wealth of expertise stemming from years of relevant, real-world experience within the application layer from technical and strategic perspectives.
We have a unique ability to understand the threats your applications face and can play a vital role in helping to mature or align your security posture.
