Exploit-Driven Secure Code Review
Finding bugs in code is cheaper than in production. We review code for logic flaws and vulnerabilities.
Who this is for
Teams who want the design and the code examined by someone who breaks software for a living, before the weakness reaches production.
Methodology
What We Test
- Authentication and authorization code paths
- Input handling and trust boundaries
- Business logic abuse scenarios
- High-risk patterns leading to exploit chains
How We Test
- Follow attacker-controlled execution paths
- Correlate code flaws with runtime behavior
- Focus on abuse, not style or linting
- Validate exploitability in context
What You Receive
- Exploitable findings, not theoretical issues
- Clear proof of abuse scenarios
- Actionable remediation for developers
- Reduced false positives
How a review runs
-
Scope & authorisation
We agree which codebases, components or architectures are in scope, the depth of review, and what is explicitly excluded. Nothing starts without written authorisation and, if you want one, an NDA.
-
Inputs & access
We tell you what we need — repository or read access, build instructions, architecture diagrams and data-flow documentation, and a named technical contact who can answer design questions.
-
Threat modelling
We work out what an attacker would want from this system and which trust boundaries matter, so the review targets consequential risk rather than style issues.
-
Manual review
Review is done by hand, informed by tooling rather than driven by it. Where a finding can be safely demonstrated in a test environment, we demonstrate it; where it cannot, we explain the reasoning and the conditions required.
-
Report & walkthrough
You get an executive summary and developer-level detail with file and component references, remediation guidance, and an explicit note of areas reviewed that were sound. We walk your engineers through it.
-
Follow-up review
We re-review the changes you make to confirm the issue is actually resolved rather than moved. Scope and window are agreed before the engagement begins.
