Overview

What Source Code Review covers

Black-box testing shows what is reachable. Code review shows why the weakness exists, how widely the pattern is repeated and which architectural decision allowed it.

Our reviewers work alongside GARUDX, our source code analysis platform, so coverage is broad and findings are precise, mapped to CWE and OWASP categories.

The problem we solve

The same insecure pattern is often copied across a codebase. Without code-level review, teams remediate individual instances while the underlying pattern keeps shipping.

Scope & outcomes

What we test and what you receive

Scope coverage

  • Authentication and session implementation
  • Authorisation enforcement points
  • Input validation and output encoding
  • Injection-prone data flows and query construction
  • Cryptography, secrets and key handling
  • Dependency and supply chain risk
  • Error handling, logging and data leakage
  • Insecure design and trust boundary decisions

Key benefits

  • Root-cause remediation instead of instance patching
  • Measurable reduction in recurring vulnerability classes
  • Secure coding uplift for the development team
  • Evidence for secure development requirements

Deliverables

  • Findings mapped to CWE and OWASP categories
  • Vulnerable code excerpts with secure alternatives
  • Pattern-level and architectural recommendations
  • GARUDX scan reports in PDF, Word and Excel
  • Developer remediation workshop
  • Verification review of applied fixes
