This document is not a “How to perform a Secure Code review” walkthrough but more a guide on how to perform a successful review. Knowing the mechanics of code inspection is a half the battle but I’m afraid people is the other half.

To Perform a proper code review, to give value to the client from a risk perspective and not from an academic or text book perspective we must understand what we are reviewing.

Applications may have faults but the client wants to know the “real risk” and not necessarily what the security textbooks say.

==Guide History==
−
The only possible way of developing secure software and keeping it secure going into the future is to make security part of the design. When cars are designed safety is considered and now a big selling point for people buying a new car, “How safe is it?” would be a question a potential buyer may ask, also look at the advertising referring to the “Star” rating for safety a brand/model of car has.

Unfortunately the software industry is not as evolved and hence people still buy software without paying any regard to the security aspect of the application.
