🛠️ What is Burp Suite?
**Burp Suite is one of the most powerful tools for web application security testing. It allows ethical hackers and bug bounty hunters to intercept, manipulate, and analyze HTTP requests and responses.
Whether you’re testing login pages, APIs, or session tokens — Burp can help find flaws like XSS, SQLi, IDOR, and more.
**🚀 Getting Started
**Download Burp Suite Community Edition from portswigger.net.
Configure your browser to use 127.0.0.1:8080 as the proxy.
Import the Burp CA certificate into your browser to avoid SSL errors.
**🔍 Common Use Cases
**Repeater: Replay requests with modified parameters
Intruder: Automate payload injection (great for brute force testing)
Scanner (Pro version): Automatically detect vulnerabilities
Proxy: Intercept all browser traffic in real time
**⚡ Real-World Example
**Let’s say you’re testing a forgot password feature. With Burp, you can:
Intercept the token generation request
Check if it’s predictable
Manipulate the endpoint to check for IDOR or token reuse
This kind of manual testing goes far beyond what automated tools can detect.
