Enterprise-Scale Static Analysis for Security, Safety, and Quality Compliance.
The world's most popular web application security testing toolkit for offensive and defensive security teams.
Burp Suite, developed by PortSwigger, is the definitive industry standard for web application security testing. Its architecture centers around an Interception Proxy that allows security researchers to inspect and modify traffic between their browser and the target server in real-time. Moving into 2026, Burp Suite has integrated sophisticated AI-driven heuristics into its 'Burp Scanner,' enabling it to identify complex DOM-based vulnerabilities and business logic flaws that traditional scanners often miss. The platform is built on a modular Java-based framework, supported by the BApp Store—a massive repository of community-driven extensions. Its technical superiority lies in its Out-of-Band Application Security Testing (OAST) capabilities via Burp Collaborator, which detects vulnerabilities that do not result in immediate responses (like blind SQLi or SSRF). For enterprise environments, the 2026 roadmap emphasizes CI/CD integration, allowing DevSecOps teams to trigger automated scans via REST APIs, while the Professional edition remains the Swiss Army knife for individual researchers requiring manual control over request manipulation, automated fuzzing, and session handling.
