Burp Suite Professional Mastery
Burp Suite is the industry-standard web application testing platform. Key modules: Proxy (intercept and modify HTTP/S traffic), Scanner (automated vulnerability detection), Intruder (fuzzing and brute force), Repeater (manual request manipulation), Sequencer (session token analysis), and Decoder (encoding/decoding utilities).
Essential Burp workflows: Configure browser proxy to 127.0.0.1:8080, install Burp CA certificate for HTTPS interception. Use Scope to limit scanning to target domains. Target Site Map shows all discovered content. Intruder positions and payload sets enable parameter fuzzing.
Burp Extensions: ActiveScan++, AuthMatrix, Autorize (authorization testing), Logger++ (advanced logging), CSRF Token Tracker. The BApp Store has hundreds of community extensions for specialized testing.
