Abstract

A non-transitory processor-readable medium stores code that represents instructions that, when executed at a processor, cause the processor to access an attack description; intercept a data set from an application via an application programming interface (API), where the intercepted data set is based on an attack data set and where the attack data set is used to test for a security vulnerability in the application; correlate, using a Hamming distance, the intercepted data set with the attack description using a correlation type identifier; and report the security vulnerability for the application in response to the intercepted data set based at least in part on a result of the correlation.
