Secure Code Review Expose and Correct Security Defects
White box penetration testing is a granular audit of source code

Why Secure Code Review Matters?
Secure code review identifies and remediates vulnerabilities before deployment, protecting data, ensuring compliance, safeguarding M&A transactions, and significantly reducing remediation costs.
Protect Sensitive Data
Look under the hood
Strengthen M&A Due Diligence
Improve Code Quality
Cut Remediation Costs
Software Secured’s Secure Code Review
Our Secure Code Review blends automated static analysis, manual inspection of critical modules, and a 120-point checklist to uncover exploitable flaws, logic bypasses, and compliance gaps.
Static Analysis and Expert Validation
- Scan with proprietary and commercial tools for code vulnerabilities
- Suppress false positives and validate real risks with expert review
Manual Deep Review of Security-Sensitive Modules
- Authentication, authorization, cryptography, and session handling are inspected line by line
- File uploads/downloads, database access, and configuration files are rigorously tested
Business Logic and Hidden Risk Analysis
- Detect privilege escalation, logic bypasses, and unsafe debug functions
- Expose potential backdoors, time bombs, and hidden design flaws
Uncover Insecure Design Decisions
Architecture flaws often create systemic weaknesses
- Identify risky trust boundaries, weak isolation, and unsafe dependency choices
- Recommend design-level changes that prevent vulnerabilities before code is even written
Comprehensive Checklist and Dependency Audit
- Codebase inspected against a bank grade secure coding checklist
- Inventory third-party components and flag known CVEs and licensing issues
What sets Software Secured Apart
Expert Human Review
Tools alone miss exploitable flaws
- Identify logic flaws and unsafe patterns
- Provide trusted, reproducible proof-of-concept exploits
Developer-Ready Deliverables
Engineers need clear fixes, not vague advice
- Deliver step-by-step remediation with context
- Integrate fixes directly into developer workflows
Expertise Across Critical Languages
We cover the following languages:
- C, C++, Java, C#, TypeScript, JavaScript
- Python, PHP, Ruby, and ColdFusion
M&A Liability and Technical Debt
Reviews reveal risks beyond code flaws
- Expose dependencies creating financial liabilities
- Reduce post-acquisition remediation and compliance costs

“I was impressed at how thorough the test plan was, and how "deep" some of the issues were that their testing uncovered. Also, the onboarding process was simple and painless: they were able to articulate exactly what they needed from us, and showed a clear understanding of the product they would be testing during our initial demo”.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from SAST tools?
We combine automated static analysis with expert manual review, uncovering exploitable flaws and logic issues scanners cannot detect, while removing false positives that waste developer time.
Which areas of the codebase do you prioritize?
We focus on authentication, authorization, cryptography, file handling, data storage, and business logic modules most likely to impact security and compliance outcomes with white box pentesting.
Can secure code review help in M&A?
Yes. We uncover vulnerabilities, outdated libraries, licensing issues, and hidden flaws, protecting the acquiring company from operational disruption, financial liability, and reputational damage.
What deliverables will we receive?
Reports include prioritized issues, CVSS and DREAD scoring, business impact statements, and developer-ready fixes remediation guidance.
How actionable are the findings?
Every vulnerability includes reproduction steps, remediation guidance, and risk scoring. Integration into JIRA, Azure DevOps and Slack ensures developers can immediately triage and fix issues.
