Discover hidden flaws before they become costly nightmares
Identify opportunities for improvement and safeguard your software against potential vulnerabilities—that’s our goal at DevCom. Here’s what our code audit service does to achieve that.
This service involves a thorough examination of your software’s source code by an independent development team. It focuses on:
Does your software’s integrity and performance rely on external services? If so, we highly recommend running a review of the third-party coding by a code audit company. This ensures that all integrations are secure, efficient, and reliable, minimizing the risk of compatibility issues or security vulnerabilities.
An evaluation focused on the structural design of your software. This includes testing the system's architecture for scalability, performance, and robustness. The goal is to ensure that the architecture supports current and future business needs and allows for easy updates of product features and expansions. It also aims to improve poor system architecture.
We will review your code, libraries, and selected services to determine potential weaknesses in the system. Typical issues include SQL injections and JavaScript injections, as well as a lack of protection for your passwords, API keys, and more.
The UI audit examines the user interface code and design. We evaluate aspects such as browser compatibility, CSS approach, JavaScript library usage, responsive design approach, performance, and others.
We review the current software artifacts (source code, documentation, project management system, etc.) to identify areas for improvement across ten categories. These include project structure, documentation, security, and more.
Furthermore, we offer a set of additional services, like examining the project management process or the CI/CD pipeline.
In the second stage, we combine the findings from our static audit report with our observations during team reviews and meetings. We also examine the Scrum process and overall communication.
At this stage, we really go deep into reviewing the software or system and prepare our conclusion and recommendations.
In the final stage, we either implement the recommended changes or provide support while your team makes the improvements.
Start your code audit process with a simple inquiry to discuss what you need and hope to achieve.
Before moving forward, we’ll sign a mutual non-disclosure agreement (MNDA) to protect your sensitive information.
We’ll have an initial interview to ensure the audit aligns with your software’s goals and requirements.
You’ll provide access to your code repository so we can start reviewing your software’s source code and overall quality.
Your code will go through a detailed analysis using various tools to examine every aspect thoroughly.
At the end, you’ll receive a comprehensive report that outlines our findings, insights, and suggestions for improving the code.
A code audit allows businesses to identify risks, technical debt, or inefficiencies that could impact the transaction, helping them ensure that the software is an asset, not a liability.
A scalability audit assesses if the software architecture is built to scale, identifying areas that might hinder growth and suggesting structural improvements for future-proofing.
A code audit assesses the codebase's structure and complexity, uncovering areas that can be refactored to improve its readability, modularity, and maintainability.
A code audit identifies areas of technical debt—such as outdated code or shortcuts taken in earlier development phases—and provides a roadmap to clean up and refactor the code.
A code audit aimed at compliance can tell if the software meets the necessary legal and industry-specific requirements.
A performance audit will analyze the code's efficiency and pinpoint bottlenecks such as inefficient algorithms, memory leaks, and poor database queries.
In addition to highlighting technical debt, outdated practices, and unmaintainable code, an independent code audit company can suggest refactoring the codebase to make it easier and cheaper to maintain.
A security audit uncovers potential vulnerabilities and weaknesses that may not have been detected through standard testing processes.
A code audit can analyze the flexibility and architecture of the existing codebase, pinpointing areas that are not well-suited for integration.
A pre-certification code audit helps identify security gaps or compliance issues that must be addressed before the official audit.
Costly security breaches
Maintenance costs
Regulatory fines and legal costs
Moreover, once the audit is complete and you’ve implemented the code audit company’s recommendations, the potential benefits include:
A code audit is a detailed review of your software’s code by skilled experts. The purpose is to assess the code's quality, security, performance, and compliance with industry standards. It’s not just about finding bugs—it’s about making sure the code is efficient, secure, and future-proof so it’s ready for growth and changes.
A code audit is important for several reasons. It helps uncover hidden bugs, security risks, and inefficiencies in the code. It ensures the code is maintainable, performs well, and complies with regulations or standards. In the long run, it can save money by reducing maintenance costs and preventing future problems.
Companies that value security, performance, and sustainability in their software will benefit most from source code audit services, especially in industries that deal with sensitive data, strict regulations, financial transactions, frequent updates, and heavy load or traffic.
So, consider hiring an independent code audit company if you work in:
During a code audit, we focus on:
A software code audit is extremely helpful, but it’s not a silver bullet for every solution. In some cases, you don’t need one. For instance, when:
The cost of a code audit depends on several factors, such as the complexity of the software and the depth of the audit required. After discussing your needs, we provide a custom quote for each step of the audit (Static, Dynamic, Implementation).
