If You’re Only Doing WAF, You’re Doing API Security Wrong
Mayhem Application Security
No false positives. Continually expanding coverage. Automated regression tests. It’s what DevSecOps should be.
Evan Johnson
Head of Product Security
Mayhem was purpose-built to cut through the noise of traditional application security. Combining techniques used by attackers with generative AI, Mayhem tries to break your applications thousands of times every minute so you can find and fix the risks that matter most.
No Need to Recompile
Mayhem requires neither source code nor changes to your build, code or delivery.

Fits Into Your Development Pipeline
Mayhem fits into your existing development pipeline so your developers don’t have to worry about security testing on top of everything else.

Continuously Test, Continuously Develop
Mayhem automatically generates and runs thousands of tests, so you can focus on development.

Fail Fast, Fix Often
Behavioral testing means every result is real and reproducible. Skip time wasted on triage and start fixing faster.

Secure Your Apps As You Build Them
Integrate with existing bug and crash systems for faster remediation and secure code releases.

Using the power of Generative AI, Mayhem creates and runs thousands of tests every minute to identify defects in your APIs and code.
