We find risk in the code, not just the perimeter.
Secure source code review to catch injection sinks, auth flaws, crypto mistakes, and supply-chain risks before release.
Security review where vulnerabilities start
Perimeter testing finds what is exploitable from the outside. Secure source code review finds why—dangerous patterns, missing checks, and design assumptions that scanners never see. Codefend reviewers read critical paths with an attacker mindset.
We focus on authentication, authorization, cryptography, input validation, deserialization, SSRF and injection sinks, secrets in repositories, and risky use of frameworks or cloud SDKs. Dependency and supply-chain review can be included when repositories and lockfiles are shared.
Reviews can be full-application or risk-based: payment modules, admin areas, identity providers, or new microservices. Findings map to file and line context so developers can fix without guessing.
Pair code review with a web or API pentest when you want both root-cause clarity and runtime confirmation.
Frequently asked questions
Which languages do you review?
Common stacks include JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, PHP, Java, Go, C#, and mobile codebases. Confirm your stack during scoping.
Is this the same as SAST?
SAST helps at scale; our review is expert-driven and targets business-critical paths and design flaws tools under-report.
Do you need full repository access?
Read access to relevant repos and build docs is ideal. Partial reviews of specific modules are also common.
Can you review infrastructure-as-code?
Yes, Terraform, CloudFormation, and similar configs can be included when cloud posture risk is in scope.
