It represents a vital step towards ensuring the safety and reliability of your codebase, allowing you to identify potential vulnerabilities and adhere to best practices in line with OWASP guidelines.
Security Checks and Analysis: Safeguarding Against Risks
The package conducts an array of security checks on the parsed code, identifying potential vulnerabilities and insecure coding patterns. It focuses on detecting common security risks, such as input validation, dangerous functions, DOS attacks, XSS attacks, and more. These checks are meticulously crafted to ensure robust protection against known security threats.
OWASP Standards Compliance: Meeting the Apex of Security
NodejsSecurify stands in alignment with the esteemed OWASP security standards, encompassing the OWASP Cheat Sheet. This comprehensive guide covers a spectrum of security concerns, ranging from input validation and output encoding to authentication, session management, and more. By enforcing these best practices your Node.js applications are shielded against a broad spectrum of potential threats.

A Blend of Techniques for Comprehensive Analysis
The diverse set of security checks is achieved through a combination of techniques. Some vulnerabilities are identified through Naive Bayes classifier (a machine learning technique), while others are revealed by performing operations on the parsed code using Esprima or TypeScript. Additionally, simple if-else conditions play a crucial role in detecting certain vulnerabilities. This multi-faceted approach ensures a thorough and efficient analysis.
Unmatched Security Checks with the Naive Bayes Classifier
NodejsSecurify leverages sophisticated techniques, including Naive Bayes Classifier, to bolster its security checks. Employing this powerful statistical model accurately predicts potential vulnerabilities based on analyzed patterns within the code.

Flabberesting Features of NodeJsSecurify That Make It a Security Marvel Amongst Packages
Unstoppable auditing! Syntax error won't halt it.
It highlights and keeps parsing, a win-win for devs! It relentlessly parses the code, swiftly highlighting any encountered errors in the audit, and seamlessly continues the parsing journey.
NodeJSsecurify offers a comprehensive code analysis.
Expertly pinpointing vulnerabilities, with suggestions and illuminating the exact lines and the path of the file where security risks are identified within the code.
It intelligently skips parsing unnecessary files in node modules and those listed in .gitignore. This results in lightning-fast audit report generation and a significant reduction in bundle size.
Works on all kinds of javascript code, including .jsx, .js, .tsx, .ts, NodeJs and express.js.
NodeJSsecurify is a breeze to set up in any Node.js application - no need for a Ph.D. in implementation like with EsLint!
Robust Security Checks and Analysis: Your Watchman in the Code
The core of NodejsSecurify is its meticulous security checks that analyze parsed code, focusing on detecting potential vulnerabilities and common security risks, including:
Input Validation: Verifying and validating user inputs to prevent potential security breaches.
Dangerous Functions: Identifying and mitigating the use of hazardous functions that could compromise security.
DOS Attack: Safeguarding against Denial of Service (DOS) attacks by implementing effective countermeasures.
ReGex DOS Attack: Shielding against Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) attacks.
Brute Force Attack: Implementing preventive measures against brute force attacks.
CallBack Hell: Enhancing code readability and maintainability by addressing callback-related complexities.
XSS Attack: Protecting against Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks.
Insecure Security Headers: Strengthening security by ensuring proper security headers in HTTP responses.
Unsafe npm packages: Identifying and rectifying the usage of unsafe npm packages.
Insecure Authentication: Enhancing authentication mechanisms to prevent unauthorized access.
Code Injection: Guarding against code injection vulnerabilities.
