Abstract
The techniques and supporting systems described herein provide a comprehensive and customizable approach to identifying the use of best practices during the design and development of software applications, as well as recommending additional enhancements or courses of action that may be implemented to further improve the application. Target software application code is received specific application security best practices applicable to the target software application are identified. Locations in the code where the various best practices ought to be implemented are then identified, and a determination is made whether the relevant best practices are implemented for each location. Finally, positive feedback is provided to the developers for what appears to be their correct implementation of best practices.
