Find bugs at the source, not in production
Every production vulnerability started as a line of code. Source code review — combining SAST tooling with expert manual analysis — is the most cost-effective way to catch flaws, because finding a bug in code is 100x cheaper than finding it after a breach.
CyberAlpha performs deep, language-aware source code reviews across Java, .NET, Node.js, Python, Go, Ruby, PHP, Kotlin, Swift, and more. We combine commercial SAST tools with handwritten queries (CodeQL, Semgrep) plus seasoned manual review focused on the findings scanners always miss: authorization logic, crypto misuse, and business rules.
You get a developer-facing report with line-level findings, secure code examples, and optional workshops to upskill your engineering team for the long run.
Schedule a Consultation100x Cheaper Pre-Prod
A bug found in code costs a fraction of one found after deployment or breach.
Scanners Miss Logic
SAST finds injection but routinely misses authorization, crypto, and business logic flaws.
Hardcoded Secrets
API keys, DB credentials, and tokens frequently live in git history and config files.
Insecure Patterns
Deserialization, unsafe reflection, and dangerous sinks recur across legacy codebases.

Shift-Left Savings
SDLC integration means fewer last-minute pen test failures blocking releases.
Compliance
PCI DSS, FedRAMP, and SOC 2 all expect secure code review as part of the SDLC.
Deep code review across every layer
Automated analysis plus expert manual review — across 15+ languages and frameworks.

Real source-level flaws we uncover
Hardcoded Secrets
AWS keys, API tokens, DB passwords in code and git history.
Injection Sinks
Unsanitized input flowing into SQL, commands, LDAP, and templates.
Broken Authorization
Missing permission checks, role confusion, and tenant boundary flaws.
Unsafe Deserialization
Java, .NET, and Python deserialization leading to RCE.
Weak Crypto
MD5/SHA1 usage, ECB mode, hardcoded IVs, and custom crypto implementations.
Logging Leakage
