// METHODOLOGY
VibeCheck is built on established security research and standards. Every finding is traceable to authoritative sources.
How VibeCheck Works
VibeCheck performs static analysis on your code, running multiple specialized analyzers that check for different vulnerability categories. Each analyzer uses patterns derived from security research and real-world incident analysis.
Standards & Sources
Security Standards
- OWASP Top 10 (2021 Edition)
- OWASP API Security Top 10
- MITRE CWE (Common Weakness Enumeration)
- NIST Secure Software Development Framework
Research & Reports
- Veracode 2025 GenAI Code Security Report
- GitGuardian State of Secrets Sprawl 2024
- RedHunt Labs Vibe Coding Research
- Academic research on LLM code security

Limitations
VibeCheck is a static analysis tool. It has inherent limitations:
- *Cannot detect all vulnerabilities (no tool can achieve 100% coverage)
- *Cannot verify runtime behavior or dynamic code paths
- *May produce false positives that require manual review
- *Does not replace professional security audits or penetration testing
- *Cannot guarantee your code is secure after fixing findings
