Source Code Review Services

Security vulnerabilities introduced at the code level are the hardest to detect — and the most expensive to fix after deployment. GoAgile’s source code review combines automated scanning with deep manual analysis to identify security flaws, logic errors, and coding weaknesses before they reach production.

How We Work

Source Code Review Methodology

Our review process combines automated static analysis with expert manual inspection — covering your entire codebase from authentication logic to third-party dependencies.

Scoping & Standards Review

Define the review scope, understand your architecture and technology stack, and establish the coding standards and security requirements your codebase should conform to.

What you receive: Scope document, technology stack profile, coding standards baseline, engagement rules of engagement.

Automated Static Analysis

Run industry-leading SAST tools across the full codebase to surface known vulnerability patterns — injection flaws, insecure deserialization, hardcoded credentials, and dependency vulnerabilities.

What you receive: Automated scan results, false positive triage, confirmed findings catalogue.

Manual Code Inspection

Expert analysts review security-critical code paths that automated tools miss — authentication logic, session management, cryptographic implementations, data validation, and business logic flaws.

What you receive: Manual review findings, logic flaw identification, risk-rated vulnerability list with code references.

Reporting & Remediation Support

Deliver a prioritised report covering all findings with line-level code references, remediation guidance, and secure coding recommendations — followed by a retest to verify fixes.

What you receive: Executive summary, technical findings report with code references, remediation roadmap, retest included.

What We Review

Source Code Review Coverage

Static Analysis (SAST)

Automated static application security testing across your entire codebase — identifying known vulnerability patterns including injection flaws, insecure data handling, hardcoded secrets, and cryptographic weaknesses using industry-leading SAST tooling.

Manual Code Review

Expert-led manual inspection of security-critical code paths — covering authentication and authorisation logic, session management, input validation, error handling, and business logic flaws that automated tools consistently fail to detect.

Framework & Dependency Review

Evaluate the security posture of third-party libraries, open-source components, and frameworks in use — identifying known CVEs, outdated dependencies, and insecure configuration patterns that introduce risk into your application.

Reporting & Remediation

Every finding is documented with a line-level code reference, risk rating, and actionable remediation guidance written for developers. A structured remediation roadmap prioritises fixes by risk — and a retest confirms vulnerabilities are resolved before the engagement closes.

Why Partner with GoAgile for Source Code Review

Tailored testing approaches

Approach What it simulates Best suited for
Black Box An external attacker with zero knowledge of the application's internals External-facing apps, pre-launch assessments
Grey Box A compromised insider or threat actor with partial access (credentials, architectural overview) Post-authentication flows, privilege escalation testing
White Box Full access to source code, architecture diagrams, and environment details Deep-dive code review, CI/CD pipeline integration, maximum coverage
Why GoAgile

Code reviewed the way developers and security teams both need.

Our source code review practice is built around one principle: findings must be actionable. Clear code references, developer-ready guidance, and a retest included as standard.

Human + Automated Coverage

We combine the speed of automated SAST scanning with expert manual review — catching both known vulnerability patterns and the nuanced logic flaws that only human analysts find.

Line-Level Findings

Every vulnerability is documented with a precise code reference, so developers know exactly what to fix — no vague findings, no generic recommendations.

Retest Included

We don’t close the engagement at the report. Once your team has addressed the findings, we retest to confirm vulnerabilities are resolved and your code is production-ready.

ISO 27001 Certified
