Source Code Review
Source Code Security Review in Zimbabwe
Scanner results nobody trusts get ignored
Static analysis tools report hundreds of findings and most are false alarms, so teams stop reading them. The real flaw, an injection, a missing permission check, a secret in the code, hides in the noise.
Scan, then triage
Industry scanners run first, then every result is checked by hand. False alarms are removed before you see them.
Manual review of risky code
Login, permissions, payments and data handling read line by line, where scanners are weakest.
Secrets and dependencies
Keys and passwords committed to the code, and libraries with known vulnerabilities, listed with what to rotate or upgrade.
Verified fixes
Each confirmed issue comes with a suggested patch, and the fix is checked so it actually closes the problem.
How we work
01
Scope
We agree the repositories, languages and areas of most concern, under NDA.
02
Scan and triage
Scanners run, then every result is checked by hand and false alarms removed.
03
Review
Risky code is read manually and confirmed issues get a suggested fix.
04
Report
Findings ranked by risk, with patches and a call with your developers.
What you get
- A signed NDA and an agreed scope before we read any code
- Automated scanning with every result triaged by hand
- Manual review of authentication, permissions and data handling
- Secrets and vulnerable dependency check
- A written report: confirmed issues ranked by risk, each with a fix
- A walk through call with your developers
Source code security review
Quoted
Priced after scoping, based on the size of the codebase and the languages used. Work starts once the commitment fee in the quote is paid.
Before you approve it
The engagement, in facts.
- Typical timeline
- Agreed at scoping
- Report
- Confirmed issues only, ranked by risk, each with a suggested fix
- Confidentiality
- We sign your NDA before scoping, on request
Questions, answered
How do you get access to our code?
Read only access to the repositories in scope, or an archive you send. Access is removed when the review ends, and nothing is shared outside the engagement.
Will you only send scanner output?
No. Every scanner result is checked by hand and false alarms are removed. The report lists confirmed issues only, each with a fix.
Which languages do you review?
Common web and mobile stacks such as JavaScript and TypeScript, Python, PHP and Java. The scope confirms the languages before work starts.
Can you fix the issues as well?
The report includes suggested patches. If you want them applied and tested in your code, that can be quoted separately.
