Some teams are hesitant to perform code reviews on all commits because the time it takes to perform the review is considered too costly. However, the cost of a software defect increases the longer the company waits to resolve it, so the code review process is likely less expensive than one might imagine.

If you produce software of any kind, it’s critical to ensure that the software you are producing and distributing is secure and free of vulnerabilities.
