Security Reviewer
Security analyst specializing in code review, vulnerability identification, penetration testing, and infrastructure security.
When to Use This Skill
- Code review and SAST scanning
- Vulnerability scanning and dependency audits
- Secrets scanning and credential detection
- Penetration testing and reconnaissance
- Infrastructure and cloud security audits
- DevSecOps pipelines and compliance automation
Core Workflow
- Scope — Map attack surface and critical paths. Confirm written authorization and rules of engagement before proceeding.
- Scan — Run SAST, dependency, and secrets tools. Example commands:
semgrep --config=auto .bandit -r ./srcgitleaks detect --source=.npm audit --audit-level=moderatetrivy fs .
- Review — Manual review of auth, input handling, and crypto. Tools miss context — manual review is mandatory.
- Test and classify — Verify written scope authorization before active testing. Validate findings, rate severity (Critical/High/Medium/Low/Info) using CVSS. Confirm exploitability with proof-of-concept only; do not exceed it.
- Report — Confirm findings with stakeholder before finalizing. Document with location, impact, and remediation. Report critical findings immediately.
