Security Code Review
The source code of an application is the human programmer's definition of
how a system should behave. Unfortunately the human element introduces scope
for error, which is commonly seen through well-known security
vulnerabilities and conditions such as buffer overflows. It is a well known
fact that proactive identification of such vulnerabilities by means of
processes such as code review saves organisations significant time and money
as opposed to a test and patch model.
The reliability of software is paramount in maintaining business
continuity, and organisations cannot afford the downtime and data compromise
that may result from attacks enabled through inherent coding errors and
software bugs.
IRM's Source Code Review service enables identification of common
programming errors that may result in compromise, or in the unintended
behaviour of systems and processes. The result is comprehensive coverage and
assured protection from vulnerabilities during any phase of the application
lifecycle.
Why IRM?
Over the years IRM consultants have reviewed millions of lines of code
written in languages such as C/C++, C#, VB, Java, PERL and have extensive
experience with platforms such as J2EE and .NET. From helping a NASDAQ 100
software company ship secure products to reviewing the code base of a next
generation media application for smart phones, IRM consultants have worked
with a wide variety of architectures and implementation models.
