Will your software stand up to a Prolifogy code review?

A chain is only as strong as its weakest link, they say. How strong is your software development chain?

Is your software development team following best practices? Are your trade secrets easy to steal? Are you infringing any patents or copyrights? Will end users find your application too complicated? Will your infrastructure stand up to future expansion and load? Can your vendors and consultants claim any rights to your source code? Are your back end systems vulnerable to attacks?

Astonishingly, the answer to many of these questions is often “yes” according to Prolifogy’s panel of associates—the world’s foremost Ph.D. experts in software engineering. You can find the answer in a quality source code review.

Prolifogy associates have decades of experience and insight into many of the world’s most overlooked, yet most critical aspects of software development. From small startups to large publicly traded companies—no matter the industry—Prolifogy associates have repeatedly discovered that no organization is immune from the potential disasters that await companies that do not proactively search out and resolve these issues.

Fortunately, the answers to the above questions do not need to remain a mystery. Whether your organization develops software in-house or uses outside services, Prolifogy’s code review and quality assurance services are sure to disturb even the most diligent management with its deep and thorough software analysis using a palette of sophisticated techniques and tools designed to identify problems, failure points, and vulnerabilities.

Case in point: it is common for organizations to invest millions of dollars in a software application that contains trade secrets, such as proprietary algorithms. Such trade secrets often perform key software functions in a way that is either unique, faster, more accurate, or less resource-consuming than competing products. However, techniques for protecting trade secrets is seldom covered in most books and higher education software courses. The fact of the matter is that most software developers don’t know how to reverse engineer software and therefore don’t know how to prevent others from doing so.

Many Prolifogy clients tend to be alarmed by how easily Prolifogy experts can rip presumably confidential trade secrets out of publicly available software applications and, in many cases, uncover even more serious issues such as security vulnerabilities. Security, however, is just one of many points covered by a Prolifogy code review.
