Code Review Tools

Speed development with automated code review tools

As development teams work to integrate security into the software development lifecycle (SDLC), the right code review tools can help to find vulnerabilities faster and fix them more easily.

Application security risk seems to be at an all-time high as software has become the primary target for malicious attacks. While development teams face increasing pressure to improve security, they’re also expected to crank out software at an ever-faster pace.

Traditional code review tools tend to be cumbersome and fragmented, working against the need to accelerate development timelines. That’s why more development teams today are turning to automated code review tools from Veracode to help improve software security without slowing or hindering the development process.
