Anyone has any idea about Source Code Review and Penetration Testing Services Provider in India/abroad ?
A friend got development work for a site and the company wants to perform this 2 additional services.
Well …quite a few tools for Bug Bounty Hunters, Penetration Testers, Security Consultants and Auditors, Sysadmins and Network Admins, Web Developers, Testers . however more reputed ones are available ..the source is more on Cloud, SaaS, Web-Based…
Code quality, bad smells, vulnerabilities can still be assessed without unit/integration tests. Those are only needed to determine code coverage but yes that’s essential part of development.
OP asked Source Code Review and Penetration Testing Services. At least the former can be done with SQ.
Quite a good option as Nessus scans cover a wide range of technologies including operating systems, network devices, hypervisors, databases, web servers, and critical infrastructure if i am not mistaken .
and let you plan Technical Debt the project has and how to tackle it? This has integrations with Build tools or CI/CD tools so all the observations or notes will be put into Issue Tracker/JIRA
A good friend of mine owns https://paralok.com/
Contact them. As for tools like owasp and sonarqube; it is better if these tests are done by third party and not the devs themselves.
While I agree with the third party point, I would like to share my experience - whenever I dealt with any CISO/Info Sec for any of the Client projects - they were pleased to see sonarqube recommendations implemented and never had run-in with them.
SonarQube is a very heavily used asset in the enterprise. I’m working in a International Fintech company which caters to international banks across US and EU for prepaid cards and payment services. Our product source code is all setup to go through SonarQube analysis and recommendations are being implemented.
Eventually there are little to no issues in pen-testing later because the heavy work is already done during development phase, thanks to sonar integration with CI pipelines and that’s why I recommended that initially.
That said, Zero day vulnerabilities are excluded and no one is safe from that, not even paid services.
Wondering why there contact form is only limited to 250 characters only?
Sorry, but dropped this for now.
Thanks for all the help received in this question, approached one company from all suggestions received.
Probably, will finalize the deal.
Also received replies on freelancing sites, but there are not professionals (most individuals without much information on both testing and source code review)
