Before requesting a proposal
Questions before sharing a repository.
How much does a software audit cost in Panama?
It depends on the decision, modules, technologies, repositories, data, integrations, environments, documentation, depth and available evidence. We quote after a preliminary inventory; lines of code alone do not measure complexity or risk.
Do you need source-code access?
Usually yes for a deep review. Some questions can be assessed through architecture, binaries, behavior, metrics or documentation, but limitations must be explicit. Access can be temporary, read-only and inside the agreed environment.
Will the audit find every defect?
No. It assesses a defined scope and period using stated techniques and samples. It explains evidence, coverage and limitations; it cannot guarantee the absence of defects, vulnerabilities or future problems.
Is this a security review or penetration test?
It can include security architecture and controls, but it is not automatically a penetration test. Active testing requires its own authorization, scope and rules. We also assess quality, data, performance, operations and maintainability.
Will you recommend rewriting the system?
Only if evidence and alternatives support it. We compare stabilization, refactoring, gradual replacement, encapsulation, migration and rewrite against value, risk, time and team capacity.
What do we receive?
An executive summary, scope, system model, evidence, findings grouped by cause, limitations, risks, options, roadmap and closure criteria. We can support agreed remediation.
