What aspects do we cover when auditing program code?
Program code analysis is a responsible analytical procedure carried out in strict accordance with the technological map and technical specifications from the customer. When conducting an audit, we touch upon the most critical areas of your business and the software installed to control the production process, each of which is described in detail below.
Quality
When conducting an audit, we put the achievement of optimal software quality in the first place:
· Identification of current problems.
· Checking the speed of system registration for locks.
· Scalability analysis.
· Simulation of emergencies to check for other errors.
· Elimination of all inaccuracies.
· Using only the most advanced technological solutions.
· If necessary – complete reprogramming of the code.
After the audit, the user receives several useful recommendations, which allows him to continue working with us to improve his program code and fix bugs.
Safety
Unfortunately, along with the rapid development of IT technologies, more and more intruders are operating in this area. To prevent cyberattacks, we are trying to make the following actions:
· Installation of decentralized multi-stage encoding of any incoming information.
· Duplication of data on remote cloud storage.
· Constant checking of the system for the penetration of malicious viruses from the outside in real-time.
· Debugging is a user-friendly interface that signals the user about the presence of a virus or other dangers.
· Possibility of self-cleaning the system in an attempt to load an external threat.
· Using only proven antivirus programs from world-renowned vendors.
· Analysis of known cases of dangerous incidents with similar software and the adoption of milestone measures to eliminate such risks.
· Prevention of the system and checking the correctness of the program code.
· Installation of the self-cleaning system from unnecessary files, at the customer’s request.
At the client’s request, we can conclude contracts for long-term cooperation and conduct remote control of the user system, allowing us to install system upgrades and constantly decrease the hacker’s attacks.
Performance
When ordering an audit, our specialists will make presentations of new software, as well as the latest settings that will improve your business management system:
· Identification of hidden flaws in the system.
· Problem detection, interfering with software scaling.
· Selection of new innovative products.
· Improving the quality and speed of the system.
· Analysis of weak spots in the program code.
· Carrying out consultation for the customer.
· Suggestion to improve the system.
All proposed products agreed with the customer are implemented step by step to avoid large one-time investments. When the contract has been signed, we draw up a calendar plan with the customer, which is strictly implemented when the next payment is made.
Maintenance ability
When conducting an audit of the program code, we take into account the maintainability of the software and all settings:
· Checking free clusters.
· Defragmentation.
· Setting up cloud storage.
· Identification of the need for the device of other cells for storing information.
· Reprogramming the code in this way makes it fashionable to restore bad sectors without shutting down or rebooting the entire system.
· Suggestions for the customer about additional software settings.
· Prescribing all new codes with the expectation of periodic transformation and updating of data manually and automatically, following the needs.
It should be noted that when installing software on enterprises using a monolithic architecture instead of microservices, the customer will be offered a complete reorganization of the system since microservices provide the ability to store data in cloud storage capacity, which is limited only by the number of reserved cells.
Opportunities
During the audit of the program code, in addition to the basic set of procedures, we also take into account the individual wishes of each customer:
· The application of efforts for the customer to be ahead of competitors by several steps.
· adaptation of the system to the specifics of the business processes of the development.
· Issuance of a full report on the preliminary audit, which indicates both the strengths and weaknesses of the software, as well as valuable recommendations for improving the work.
· Taking into account the customer’s initiatives, provided that such settings will improve the system’s performance.
Suppose the customer insists on a complete reorganization of the software. In that case, according to the business plan, we are always ready to point out the strengths of his system and minimize costs or distribute investments over time without compromising work efficiency.
FAQ
When ordering a program code audit, users often ask different questions, repeated every time various company representatives contact us. Below, each user can study in advance the answers to the most popular questions and decide on the advisability of upgrading the software:
· Most customers mistakenly assume that code audit team members will comment on the complexity of current software and suggest replacements or reinstalls.
The final decision on a complete reboot depends only on the proprietor himself since he is only provided with a report with valuable recommendations and, in some cases, an analysis of potential profitability.
· Is it true that the current application, which has been in operation for many years, may not be able to meet the rapidly growing market and not withstand the competition?
Many companies often resort to IT technologies for business management in most cases. This means that a periodic reboot of all systems is recommended to maintain a competitive environment. In some cases, to successfully pass a market check, a rewrite of the code is required to complete the audit.
· What is the purpose of the audit – an analysis of the market and the product’s competitiveness or the installation of new software and code reprogramming?
The specialists of our company conduct a comprehensive survey, issue the necessary recommendations and offer further cooperation in writing program code.
When conducting an audit, we adhere to 4 essential principles:
· Coordination with the customer of the roadmap and technical task, after which all the tasks are performed strictly following the previously developed algorithm.
