05 // FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common Questions About AppSec & DevSecOps

Clear answers on methodology, timelines, safety, deliverables, and certified verification.

SAST tools detect syntax patterns and known dangerous functions, but they cannot comprehend business logic, multitenancy separation, custom authentication schemes, or complex cryptographic workflows. A HostX Secure Code Review is performed by senior security architects who understand your application's domain logic and identify deep architectural flaws that automated tools miss.
