Secure Code Review

Secure Code Review?

Secure Code Review, also known as Source Code Review or Security Code Review focus on identifying insecure coding techniques and vulnerabilities that could lead to security issues. It strategically reviews pieces of code to identify vulnerabilities at the root level.

When it comes to the development and release of an application, Secure Code Review should ideally be incorporated into the development life cycle as it reduces overhead costs and the time it takes for developers to remediate security bugs. The CSA Security-by-Design Framework recommends that Secure Code Review are performed at the implementation phase.
