What is security code review?
Code review is having at least one other engineer read and approve a change before it is merged. A security code review also looks for flaws such as injection, broken access checks, and leaked secrets. Branch protection rules can make the review mandatory.
What the buyer is really asking
Can any change reach production without a second person looking at it? Buyers want the rule enforced by tooling, not habit. Branch protection settings are the usual proof.
Other ways buyers ask it
Every one of these wants the same answer:
- “Is all code peer reviewed before deployment?”
- “How do you conduct code reviews?”
- “Do code reviews include security checks?”
Evidence to have ready
- Repository branch protection settings
- A sample merged pull request showing approval
