“We tried eight different API tools, and Mayhem was the best and easiest to use.”
Principal Software Engineer, Everactive
Mayhem enables developers to get meaningful results in 5 minutes.
Mayhem exercises your APIs to find and fix vulnerabilities, not just defend against them.
Run Mayhem as a part of your continuous integration build.
Mayhem recognizes common crash types and attaches a CWE (Common Weakness Enumeration) and OWASP number, along with test results.
How It Works
API security differs from our code security product because it focuses on the runtime behavior of exposed endpoints, including how they handle requests, data validation, and authentication, whereas code security analyzes the underlying implementation to find vulnerabilities.
Mayhem API uses API fuzzing to perform automated security penetration tests of REST and gRPC APIs to assess vulnerability against the OWASP Top 10 API vulnerability classes. In our measurements, Mayhem API had 100% accuracy, while tested alternative solutions failed to find critical bugs and suffered high false positive rates.
