A.
Black box pen test

B.
Security audit

C.
Source code review

D.
Vulnerability scan

Explanation:

Source code review is the best way to find and remove an application backdoor. Application
backdoors can be almost impossible to identify’ using a black box pen test or a security audit. A
vulnerability scan will only find “known” vulnerability patterns and will therefore not find a
programmer’s application backdoor.
