MITRE ATT&CK Techniques Scraper

Scrape MITRE ATT&CK techniques from any matrix, up to a million per run. Every technique comes with its ID, name, description, tactics, platforms, and detection tips. No login or API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

MITRE ATT&CK is the industry standard for adversary tactics and techniques, but its web interface is hard to query at scale. This Actor reads the public ATT&CK matrices directly and returns each technique as a flat row with its full metadata. Filter by matrix type and limit the number of results.

Who uses it What they scrape MITRE ATT&CK for
Security analysts Build a local database of ATT&CK techniques for threat hunting
Threat intelligence teams Map observed adversary behavior to ATT&CK technique IDs
SOC engineers Feed technique metadata into SIEM detection rules
Red teamers Generate a checklist of techniques for adversary emulation

What it does

This Actor collects MITRE ATT&CK techniques from the Enterprise, Mobile, or ICS matrix and returns each one as a flat row with its ID, name, description, tactics, platforms, and detection guidance.

  • ๐Ÿ“‹ Matrix selection: choose Enterprise, Mobile, or ICS to scrape the relevant technique set.
  • ๐Ÿ”ข Result limit: set a maximum number of techniques to return, from 1 up to 1,000,000.
  • ๐Ÿ“„ Flat output: each technique is returned as a single row with all fields, ready for export.

Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

What you can do with MITRE ATT&CK data

๐Ÿ” Build a threat hunting knowledge base.

A security analyst scrapes all Enterprise techniques to create a searchable local database for mapping alerts to ATT&CK IDs.

๐Ÿ“Š Analyze technique coverage.

A SOC engineer scrapes the ICS matrix to identify which techniques are covered by existing detection rules and which gaps remain.

๐Ÿงช Prepare red team exercises.

A red teamer scrapes the Mobile matrix to generate a checklist of techniques for testing mobile device defenses.

๐Ÿ“š Feed threat intelligence platforms.

A threat intel analyst scrapes all matrices and imports the data into a TIP to enrich indicators with technique context.

Configure the run

Drive the Actor by selecting an ATT&CK matrix and a maximum number of techniques. The scraper reads the public matrix pages and returns each technique as a flat row. The Input tab lists every parameter.

A first run with the defaults:

{
  "maxItems": 10
}

A larger pull:

{
  "maxItems": 200
}

Pricing

Pay-per-result: $0.021 per result collected. You pay only for the results written to your dataset.

Results collected Approximate cost
100 results $2.10
1,000 results $21.00
10,000 results $210.00

New Apify accounts start with $5 in free credit.

Free users

Free-plan runs return up to 10 results as a preview. Upgrade your Apify plan to collect up to 1,000,000 results per run.

Run it

  1. Create a free Apify account with $5 in credit.
  2. Open the MITRE ATT&CK Techniques Scraper.
  3. Set your inputs and any filters, then click Start.
  4. Export the results as CSV, Excel, JSON, or XML from the Dataset tab.

Run it programmatically through the Apify API (run-sync-get-dataset-items) or the ApifyClient for JavaScript and Python.

Use with AI agents (MCP)

Give an AI agent live access to MITRE ATT&CK through the Model Context Protocol. Add the Actor to Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client:

claude mcp add --transport http apify "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=parseforge/mitre-attack-techniques-scraper"

Then prompt it in plain language to run the scraper and read back the results.

Troubleshooting

Why am I getting no results?

Check that you selected a valid matrix and set maxItems to at least 1. Also ensure the ATT&CK website is reachable from your network.

Why is the run limited to 10 items?

Free accounts are limited to 10 items as a preview. Upgrade to a paid plan to increase the limit up to 1,000,000.

The run fails with a timeout error.

The ATT&CK website may be slow. Try reducing maxItems or retry the run later.

Some fields are empty in the output.

Not all techniques have every field populated. Empty fields are normal for techniques that lack certain metadata.
