January 26, 2006 (Press Release) --
AUCKLAND, 27 Jan. 06– CodeScan Labs (CodeScan Ltd, www.codescan.com) has released CodeScan Developer PHP Beta (Automated On-Demand Web Source Code Analysis) onto the world stage, and will shortly be releasing for global sales. CodeScan Developer leads the world in on-demand security audits of Web Application Source Code. (www.codescan.com)
Until recently, web application security has traditionally been tested through “penetration testing” of the application from the Internet. While this has a large number of benefits, the full application security is not really tested at the point where the security should be implemented, in other words at the Source Code level. “Security at the Source” addresses this, and the release of CodeScan Developer PHP Beta complements the CodeScan Developer ASP product, which is in full production.
CodeScan will not only be used by developers as part of the software development lifecycle but also as an assurance tool, allowing developers and consultants alike to test for security weaknesses in source code already in production with high levels of accuracy and perfomance.
Peter Benson, Chief Executive Officer of CodeScan Labs advises “The release of our PHP Beta version of CodeScan Developer has been greatly anticipated, and is a milestone for our company in heading towards the forefront of Source Code Security analysis for the millions of web sites and applications running PHP. The limited beta program will be run through our web site at www.codescan.com. While not every applicant will be accepted into the Beta program, we certainly invite everyone to come and have a look”
Benson goes on to say, “This is a huge milestone for us, and a significant complementary service to add to our portfolio. This release firmly positions CodeScan Labs on the world stage as a global security researcher, leader and visionary.”
"CodeScan has very quickly proven the success of the automated model for security auditing," adds Benson. "As pressures of security compliance on small companies as well as large enterprises continue to intensify, the opportunities for this market are unlimited. We are excited to be a part of leading this continued growth and expansion and look forward to helping take the company to a global level in this market."
