Security assessments · Security programs

Application and code security for development teams.

Security issues are cheapest to fix before they ship. We work with your engineers to review code, design and pipelines, and to build habits that stop the same class of issue from coming back.

The problem

Fast delivery, and security that arrives too late.

When security is checked only at the end — or only by a yearly test — issues are found after they are expensive to fix, and the same mistakes reappear in the next release. Dependencies, secrets and pipeline permissions add risk that never shows up in a feature review.

The aim is to give developers specific, credible feedback and a process that catches issues earlier, without slowing delivery unnecessarily.

Who it is for

  • SaaS engineering teams
  • Startups with a small dev team and no AppSec lead
  • Teams handling sensitive customer data
  • Organizations formalizing a secure SDLC
  • Teams preparing for SOC 2 or ISO/IEC 27001
What the engagement can include

From a single review to a secure development program.

  • Secure code review
  • Application and API security assessment
  • Threat modeling
  • Authentication and authorization review
  • Secrets and sensitive data handling review
  • Dependency and software supply chain risk review
  • CI/CD pipeline security review
  • Secure development lifecycle guidance
  • Vulnerability management process design
  • Developer-focused remediation guidance
Approach

Working with your engineers, not around them.

  1. 1

    Understand the application

    Architecture, data flows, trust boundaries and how you build and deploy.

  2. 2

    Agree scope & access

    Repositories, environments, pipelines and what is out of scope.

  3. 3

    Review & test

    Manual review supported by tooling, focused on the highest-risk paths.

  4. 4

    Discuss with developers

    Walk through findings so fixes are understood, not just applied.

  5. 5

    Prevent recurrence

    Recommend process, checks and training that address root causes.

Example deliverables

Specific enough to fix, clear enough to prioritize.

Finding descriptions

What is wrong, in developer terms.

Code references

Files and lines, when source access is available.

Evidence & impact

How it can be triggered and what it allows.

Remediation options

Practical fixes, including trade-offs.

Risk-based priority

Which issues to address first and why.

Prevention

Patterns, checks or guidance to avoid repeats.

Important to know

Not every assessment includes access to source code. The scope and level of access are agreed for each engagement, and reviews focus on the areas agreed within the available time.

Questions

Application & Code Security FAQ

Do you review every line of code?

Usually not. Reviews prioritize high-risk areas — authentication, authorization, data handling, integrations — within the agreed scope and time.

Which languages and frameworks do you cover?

[Owner to confirm supported languages and frameworks]

Can you help set up a vulnerability management process?

Yes. We can help define how findings from scanners, tests and reviews are triaged, assigned, tracked and closed.

Will you change our code?

We provide guidance and review fixes; your team makes the changes unless something different is agreed.
