Novitas Verify · Freelance services
Verify is a checking service run by its owner and powered by Novitas software. You send the work; the software runs; every finding is read and dispositioned one by one — and what you get back is a plain-English report with the evidence attached, not a pile of alarms.
Prefer plain email? Write to [email protected] — every intake is answered by a person.
Services & fees
Fixed starting prices, quoted in writing before any paid work begins. Every service is delivered with its evidence.
Evidence
Before selling a single scan, we ran the instrument over other people’s public code and published what it found — including the parts that make a cheap scanner look bad.
We ran our calibrated scanner over two public codebases: 230 files, 28,900 lines, 16 findings. 1 was a real defect (now the fix-first item), 1 a watch item, and 14 were cleared — each with its reason printed. Nothing buried.
The one real defect: in the Spark web framework, the cookie-deletion path builds the cookie without the Secure flag that its own sibling method sets — a genuine, one-line defect in a framework other people build on. A cheap scan hands you 16 alarms and a panic. This service hands you 1 thing to fix, 1 thing to watch, and proof the other 14 were actually looked at.
The watch item — random-number ID generation inside a bundled example app — was reported as exactly that: harmless in a demo, dangerous if copied into production.
On the OWASP Benchmark, the same instrument scores J 0.4100 with precision 0.7169, and on a sealed JavaScript bug corpus it detected 78.7% of real bugs at a 0.8% false-positive rate. Those numbers are also why the human read is part of the service: the instrument is good, it is not perfect, and the report says so on its face.
