Source Code Reviews

What it is

Manual and systematic review of your application source code to identify security vulnerabilities, logic flaws, and coding practices that create risk — before they are deployed

Who it is for

Software companies, SaaS providers, fintech platforms, and any organisation developing custom applications

Particularly valuable before major releases, after significant code changes, or as part of a secure development lifecycle

Relevant for organisations where a vulnerability in code translates directly to customer data exposure or business risk

Particularly valuable where application vulnerabilities could lead to data exposure, privilege escalation, financial risk, compliance impact, or business disruption.

What we actually do

  1. 01

    Review your source code for security vulnerabilities that automated scanning tools commonly miss — business logic flaws, authentication weaknesses, authorisation bypasses, and insecure data handling

  2. 02

    Evaluate your code against secure coding standards and best practices relevant to your technology stack

  3. 03

    Assess not just what the code does, but what it allows — the gap between intended functionality and exploitable behaviour

  4. 04

    Provide findings that your development team can act on — with clear context on the risk each finding represents and specific remediation guidance

What it demands from you

  1. Access to the source code and the development team — code review is most effective when reviewers can ask questions about intent and architecture

What it does not do

Does not replace VAPT — code review identifies vulnerabilities in source code; penetration testing validates whether they are exploitable in production

Does not catch every vulnerability — it is a point-in-time review, and new code introduces new risk

Does not fix your code — it identifies what needs fixing and why, with enough context for your developers to act

What happens after the review

  1. Stage 1

    We provide a detailed findings report with remediation guidance mapped to your codebase

  2. Stage 2

    We offer follow-up reviews to validate that identified issues have been resolved

  3. Stage 3

    Code reviews pair directly with VAPT for comprehensive application security — test the code, then test the running application

Code review types

  • Web Application Code Reviews
  • Mobile Code Reviews
  • Thick Client Code Reviews

Your next
step starts here.

Every engagement starts the same way
— a conversation. Not a sales call.

A real conversation about
what you are trying to build, where the gaps are,
and whether we are the right fit.
Sometimes we are. Sometimes we are not.
Either way, you will know exactly
where you stand.
