Code Audit

Code Audit

Software Code Audit Services

Carried out by a joint team of senior developers and security experts, software code audit implies a combination of automated techniques and manual code analysis to provide a holistic view of code quality and security.

Who Can Benefit from Our Code Audit

Corporate Softwre Customers

◆ Evaluate the quality of the software you are planning to invest in.
◆ Enhance the performance of custom or platform-based solutions currently in use.
◆ Prevent security and compliance breaches caused by source code issues.
◆ Ensure code consistency in case of contracting a new team of developers.

Software Product Vendors

◆ Ensure that your source code adheres to best coding practices.
◆ Prevent or reduce technical debt.
◆ Be confident in the code quality and security when the product goes to the market.
◆ Promptly address user feedback and speed up releases.<.br>
◆ Ensure smooth software evolution.

What We Check within Our Code Audit

Code security audit

To assess code security, we:

◆ Check security mechanisms and properties, such as auditing and logging, input/data validation, code obfuscation, code thread safety, serialization filtering, session management, and more.
◆ Evaluate the security of communication, input/output operations, connection strings.
◆ Reveal race condition, buffer overflow, code injection and cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities and encryption errors.

All-around code audit

In addition to code security, we evaluate the code against best coding practices. We check:

◆ Descriptive names for code variables.
◆ Code comments and documentation.
◆ Utilization of ready frameworks and reusable components.
◆ Code splitting.
◆ Code portability.
◆ Version control.
◆ Exception-handling mechanisms.
◆ Use of linter tools, such as SonarQube, ESLint, and more.

Where You Win with Vantage Point

KPI Based Approach

We base our audits on code quality KPIs: e.g., Cyclomatic Complexity, Maintainability Index and help you improve project-level KPIs, such as cycle time, deployment frequency, and more.

Cost Efficiency

We precisely target your goals (e.g., confirm or reaffirm compliance, start an evolution project) to offer the best cost-benefit ratio for you.

Actionable advice and practical help

Not limiting ourselves to code evaluation, we are ready to provide clear guidelines on or fully take over code improvement and error remediation.

Tried and True Techniques We Use to Provide a 360-Degree View of Your Code

Static Code Analysis

We run a series of automated checks to compare the code against a predefined set of rules or best practices. After that, we manually analyze the findings to exclude false positives.

Manual Code Review

To gain a deeper insight into the code issues, we examine the source code line by line, taking into account the software architecture and business logic as well as the target of the audit: e.g., assessing code compliance or scalability.
