Binary Code Analysis

Binary code analysis is a breakthrough in application security

As cyber security threats have shifted from the network perimeter to the application layer in recent years, application security assurance has become a priority for the enterprise. To ensure that software is secure, organizations must test it before purchase or deployment and remediate any flaws that may expose the enterprise to threats. Binary code analysis is a new approach for application security testing and is revolutionizing software security. Binary code analysis scans compiled or "byte" code instead of source code, so enterprises can test comprehensively and more accurately. For the world's first binary code analysis solution, enterprises everywhere choose Veracode.

Veracode: The world's first binary code analysis solution

Veracode was founded by security experts from @stake, Guardent, Symantec, and VeriSign, with the mission to make it as easy and cost-effective for organizations to develop and purchase secure applications. Applications today are complex—they're often a "mash-up" of code from various sources. Internally developed applications may be combined with open source code from third-party software, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) packages, offshore development teams, and other sources. Traditional testing and analysis techniques can't evaluate the entire application because source code may not be available or may be protected. Veracode SecurityReview® is an automated, on-demand, application security solution that uses binary code analysis to solve this problem. SecurityReview makes it possible to scan an entire application without needing access to source code, so enterprises get a truly comprehensive application security audit. Whether purchasing or developing software, organizations can get a complete review of applications before deploying them, ensuring greater security for the enterprise.

One solution for binary static, dynamic analysis, and manual testing

Veracode SecurityReview offers a number of significant benefits to the enterprise:

One solution. SecurityReview combines automated static binary code analysis with dynamic testing (for web application security) and manual penetration testing. This comprehensive approach in a single solution means testing can be more accurate, time-efficient, and cost-effective.
On-demand. SecurityReview is built on a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, making application testing available to enterprises without the need to purchase hardware or software.
Quick results. SecurityReview provides test results in 24 to 72 hours, making it easier to meet or accelerate development and procurement deadlines. And SecurityReview can easily be integrated into software purchasing or development timelines, serving as a single point of collaboration for development teams or procurement agents who may be globally dispersed.
