The package works with a Web browser, and the penetration tester intercepts traffic between the Web server and the browser. The operating mechanism of Burp Suite is as a Web proxy. Users of the free version, the Community Edition, can see the paid tools but the buttons that launch them are disabled. The lowest plan is free, and that only includes penetration testing tools. All three editions are delivered with the same interface.

Burp Suite is offered in three editions, and the higher-priced versions add on more automated systems.


The system includes penetration testing utilities for Web applications and a vulnerability scanner. Burp Suite, from PortSwigger Ltd, is a package of system testing tools accessed from a single interface.
