Security & Quality

Professional Code Review

Find security vulnerabilities before others do

With over 21 years of experience I analyze your code for security risks, performance issues and technical debt. Receive concrete recommendations.

Why is a code review important?

Hidden security vulnerabilities and performance issues can be expensive.

A professional code review uncovers weaknesses before they become real problems. Whether you have taken over an existing application, want to audit an external developer, or simply want to ensure your code is up to date.

Frequently Asked Questions about Code Review

Access to your Git repository (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket) or the source code as ZIP. Ideally also brief info about the application: what it does, which technologies are used, are there known issues?

A Quick Check is usually ready within 2-3 working days. A Deep Dive requires 5-10 working days depending on project size. We discuss the exact timeline in advance.

Absolutely. I treat your code strictly confidentially, work on secured systems and delete the code after the review is complete. On request I sign an NDA.

My focus is on PHP (Laravel, Symfony, CodeIgniter, WordPress) and JavaScript/TypeScript. For other languages I can draw on my network.

Yes, gladly. After the review you can commission me for the implementation of the recommendations. That way you have a contact person who already knows the code.
