Code analysis methodology is a comprehensive process that involves examining the source code of an application to identify issues that could potentially affect its security, performance, and maintainability. By using specialized tools that automate the process of examining the code, identifying potential issues, and providing feedback to the developers, code analysis methodology plays an essential role in software development.

It is difficult to estimate the exact number of applications that are vulnerable to breaches, as it depends on various factors such as the security measures implemented, the types of vulnerabilities present, and the sophistication of potential attackers; however, it is generally recognized that the majority of applications have at least some vulnerabilities that could potentially be exploited by attackers. According to a recent report 76% of applications have at least one security flaw, and 24% have at least one high-severity flaw.

Application security matters because it helps protect sensitive data, maintain the privacy and integrity of systems, and prevent unauthorized access and exploitation of vulnerabilities. All of these issues can lead to financial loss, reputational damage, and loss of trust. Ensuring the security of applications is crucial for businesses, organizations, and individuals to secure their assets and meet legal and regulatory compliance requirements.
