Frequently Asked Questions
What is a security code review?
A security code review examines source code specifically for vulnerabilities and insecure design, using manual reading and automated tools to find issues such as injection, broken access control and unsafe cryptography.
What should a secure code review checklist include?
Check input validation, authentication, authorization, error handling, secrets, cryptography and dependency use. Focus on trust boundaries, where untrusted data enters the system or sensitive actions occur.
Do I need to be a developer to review code securely?
Reading skill in one language helps, but the method is learnable. The Codelivly security code review room is free and hands-on, teaching practical techniques for spotting flaws in real examples.
