Platform

Behavioral API Security at Runtime

A behavioral graph engine, credential graph, and inline response layer — purpose-built for credential stuffing, BOLA, and business-logic attacks that no WAF rule can detect. Not a proxy. Not a scanner. A runtime sidecar that watches every API call in context.

Architecture

Inline, Not in the Way

The Hirefathom agent runs as a sidecar alongside your API processes. Zero proxy, zero rerouting. All behavioral analysis happens in memory on your infrastructure.

Hirefathom platform architecture: API traffic passes through lightweight sidecar agents, feeding a behavioral analysis engine that detects threats before backend services are reached

Detection Engine

Two Graphs. One Unified Threat Picture.

Hirefathom runs a behavioral graph and a credential graph in parallel. Together they surface attack patterns invisible to rules-based systems.

Behavioral Graph Engine

Every API endpoint builds a dynamic traffic baseline — method mix, parameter distributions, sequence patterns, call timing. The graph updates continuously and flags statistical deviations in real time.

Credential Graph

Maps credential-to-endpoint relationships across your entire API surface. Detects stuffing velocity, enumeration patterns, and cross-endpoint reuse that single-endpoint rate limits can't see.

Deployment

Three Integration Paths, One Detection Engine

Deploy the Hirefathom agent as a Kubernetes sidecar, embed the SDK into your API service, or install a native plugin on your existing gateway. All three modes feed the same behavioral graph and credential graph — the integration path doesn't affect detection capability.

Sidecar Agent

Deploy as a sidecar container alongside your API pods. Kubernetes-native. Single environment variable for configuration. Ships in under 5 minutes.

SDK Integration

Embed directly into your API service with our Node.js, Python, or Go SDK. Middleware-style — wraps your existing router with minimal code changes.

Gateway Plugin

Native plugins for Kong, Nginx, and AWS API Gateway. Extend your existing gateway investment without additional infrastructure.
