About Us

At Scantist, we embark on a mission to constantly seek and create solutions to the complexities of software development.

We are fortunate to have like-minded individuals on our team who share the same passion of developing a solution that would be a game changer.

Our Story

Scantist was a spin-off from a security research lab in Nanyang Technological University since 2016. Built upon our extensive research base and deep scientific expertise, we have created an automated platform for you to manage your open source usage.

Up to 90% of codes used in applications are open source and imported by developers, which leaves the software supply chain unchecked and vulnerable for exploitation. This introduces potential threats and risks of exploits that could cost your organisation an average of about U$3.886 Million.

We want to help you build software applications freely and confidently while staying legally compliant and we are here to stay. Our dedicated team will work alongside you as we put our commitment into action in enabling your business success.
