Burp Suite

Burp Suite, developed by PortSwigger, is the industry-standard toolkit for web application security testing. Used by penetration testers, bug bounty hunters, and security teams worldwide, it provides an integrated platform for the entire testing workflow — from mapping an application's attack surface to finding and exploiting vulnerabilities.

At its core, Burp Suite acts as an intercepting proxy that sits between the browser and the target application, allowing testers to inspect, modify, and replay HTTP/HTTPS traffic in real time. Key tools include the Repeater for manual request manipulation, Intruder for automated parameter fuzzing, Scanner for automated vulnerability detection, and Sequencer for analyzing token randomness.

Burp's extensibility is one of its greatest strengths. The BApp Store offers hundreds of community-built extensions, and the Extender API allows custom plugins in Java, Python (via Jython), and Montoya API. Common extensions add capabilities like active scanning enhancements, authentication handling, and integration with other security tools.

PortSwigger also maintains the Web Security Academy — one of the best free resources for learning web security, with interactive labs that pair directly with Burp Suite testing techniques.

This page collects Burp Suite tutorials, extension guides, tips and tricks, and resources for getting the most out of the tool in your security testing workflow.
