Static Code Analysis

What is

Static Code Analysis?

Static code analysis is a method of debugging by examining source code before a program is run. An automated or manual process that helps in examining the source code of the application is a source code review. It can be manual, automated, or a mixture of both to examine any vulnerabilities and identification of security-related flaws. This majorly looks for spec implementation, logical errors, or check style guidelines. Code review mostly verifies the design whether the code is well designed, giving names to conventions, whether understandable names or variables are used, are the comments clear and meaningful, whether the codes are simple or complex and the inclusion of correctly and required automated tests.

Manual code review as the name suggests is based upon humans examining the source code line by line to find any flaws. Automated code review involves automatically reviewing source code concerning the predefined set of rules. Automated review can find flaws faster but general logic and the developer’s intention are ignored. Manual review is more specific and strategic.

Case Study

How Static Code Analysis helped in
identifying Program flaws

Forenzy was contacted by a tech giant for conducting Static Source code review to identify vulnerable functions, configurations, etc. The client’s requirement was to identify vulnerabilities through source-code review.

By using Forenzy’s avant-garde static code review methodology and experience, Team Forenzy was able to spotlight critical usage of vulnerable functions such as eval, exec, etc. which usually enables attackers to execute arbitrary commands over the server. In depth report helped the client’s developer in fixing the issue by using safe functions.

Why Should you Go For

Static Code Analysis

The benefits of secure code review are, it decreases the number of security flaws and bugs going into production, it also reduces the number of delivery defects detected at a later stage, it improves consistency and enhances maintainability and productivity, it improves ROI by making processes more secure and faster as well as using less time and resources and it also improves the knowledge sharing, accuracy and collaboration and increases in knowledge for future code development. Static code analysis ensures consistency in implementation and design by following the unique coding styles during development and making it more convenient for developers by standardizing the source code. This is also used in long run due to changes in projects. It helps in optimizing the code for better performance and collaborating and sharing new techniques. It helps to gain the right feedback from the developers and monitor project requirements and quality. It also helps to validate the scenario feature developed against the expected feature.
