Scan Your Source Code to Locate Weak Spots Early

Overview White-box testing is notoriously difficult to do. Without automatic code-scanning tools, it takes a keen eye, concentration and an enormous amount of time to scan each line of source code for security vulnerabilities. And as hackers become more sophisticated at finding these chinks in their armor and writing exploitative code, it becomes more necessary to take every precaution before shipping software. The necessary protection can range from security training throughout the Security Development Life Cycle (SDLC) to using tools such as source code scanners and vulnerability scanners.
