Secure Code Checking

As more organizations discover security vulnerabilities in production web applications, application security is becoming a priority during the development and quality assurance (QA) processes. Secure code review is the process of auditing code for an application on a line by line basis for its security quality. Code review is a way of ensuring that the application is developed appropriately so as to be "self defending" in its given environment.

Secure code review is a semi-automatic process. Tools can be used to perform this task but they always need human verification. There are many source code review tool vendors, but none have a "silver bullet". It is a labor intensive and not very scalable but it is fairly accurate if performed by humans.
