Introducing Panto Security: The Complete Solution for Static and Dynamic Analysis
Customer:
“The Wall of Defense works great for dynamic analysis, but we need Panto to also do static analysis and provide feedback to ensure the highest security and vulnerability detection.”
Panto:
“But there are other tools for that. Have you tried them?”
Customer:
“We’ve tried multiple tools, both paid and open-source. While they solve parts of the problem, managing multiple tools adds cognitive overload. We want everything integrated into Panto—static and dynamic analysis combined, configurable rules, and actionable suggestions to help developers fix vulnerabilities, not just flag them.”
And when our customers speak, we listen. 💡
Presenting... Panto Security!
🔐 What’s New?
1️⃣ Static + Dynamic Analysis: The best of both worlds in one seamless tool.
2️⃣ Broad Language & Rule Support: 30+ programming languages and 30,000+ checks.
3️⃣ Actionable Insights: We go beyond flagging vulnerabilities—we guide developers on how to fix them.
4️⃣ Streamlined Collaboration: No more back-and-forth between external auditors and internal dev teams.
🚀 Battle-Tested
After rigorous testing with a closed group of customers, we’re thrilled to officially launch Panto Security on Product Hunt next Wednesday!

How AI Is Reinventing Developer Onboarding — And Why Every Engineering Leader Should Care
Let’s be honest: onboarding new developers is hard. You want them to hit the ground running, but you also need them to write secure, maintainable code. And in today’s world, “getting up to speed” means more than just learning the codebase. It means understanding business goals, security protocols, and how to collaborate across teams. If you’re an engineering leader, you know the pain points. According to a recent survey by Stripe, nearly 75% of CTOs say that onboarding is their biggest bottleneck to productivity. Meanwhile, McKinsey reports that companies with strong onboarding processes see 2.5x faster ramp-up for new hires. The message is clear: invest in onboarding, and you’ll see real returns. But here’s the twist: traditional onboarding just isn’t cutting it anymore.

Aligning Code with Business Goals: The Critical Role of Contextual Code Reviews
As a CTO, VP of Engineering, or Engineering Manager, you understand that code quality is not just about catching bugs; it’s about ensuring that every line of code delivers real business value. In today’s fast-paced development environments, traditional code reviews often fall short. Teams need a smarter approach: one that embeds business logic, security, and performance considerations directly into the review process.

Zero Code Retention: Protecting Code Privacy in AI Code Reviews
As CTOs and engineering leaders, you know that source code is your crown jewels — it embodies your IP, contains customer data, and reflects years of design decisions. When we built Panto as an AI code-review platform, we treated code with that level of trust: our guiding rule has been never to store or expose customer code beyond the moment of analysis. In this post I’ll explain why zero code retention is critical for AI-powered code reviews, how our architecture enforces it, and what it means in practice (for example, one customer cut PR merge times in half without sacrificing privacy). We’ll also cover how a privacy-first design meshes with industry standards like SOC 2, ISO 27001, and GDPR.

From Mundane to Meaningful: How AI Tools Boost Developer Productivity
Ask any high-performing developer what gets them excited about work, and you’ll rarely hear “writing unit tests,” “checking for input sanitization,” or “rewriting a poorly structured PR description.” Yet, this is exactly where so many engineers spend a chunk of their day. **77% of developers say they spend half or more of their time on repetitive tasks that could be automated,** according to GitHub Next & Wakefield Research, 2023. As a founder and former engineer, I’ve seen it firsthand: we hire people for their creativity and problem-solving ability, then bury them under mechanical, repetitive work. It’s no wonder developer satisfaction and retention are ongoing challenges for teams everywhere. So why does this happen? And more importantly, how do we stop it?

Build vs. Buy: Panto’s Take on AI Code Reviews and Code Security
As we talk to CTOs and engineering leaders, a common refrain we hear is, “We could just build this ourselves.” The idea of a custom, home-grown AI code review or code security tool can be tempting. It offers promises of full control, perfect fit to internal processes, and no subscription fees. It sounds great on paper: “Our engineers can tailor every feature” and “we keep everything in-house”. But from Panto’s perspective, that choice comes with hidden complexity. In this post, I’ll walk through why developing your own AI code tools—with layers of GenAI, compliance logic, and developer workflows—turns out to be far more challenging (and expensive) than most teams expect. I’ll also share how Panto has evolved its agent to solve these problems out of the box, and why many fast-moving teams find it smarter to buy rather than build.

Why SCA Should Be Part of Code Review Checks
Panto introduces its new Software Composition Analysis (SCA) module for real-time visibility into open-source dependencies. As part of Panto’s unified security platform (including SAST, IaC, and secrets scanning), the SCA module delivers severity-based vulnerability alerts, SBOM insights, license risk reporting, and developer-friendly dashboards. Learn how Panto SCA empowers teams to secure code fast without slowing delivery.
