Target Module
The Target tool gives you an overview of your target
application's content and functionality, and lets you
drive key parts of your testing workflow. The key steps
that are typically involved in using the Target tab are
described below.
Proxy Module
The Proxy tool lies at the heart of Burp's user-driven
workflow, and gives you a direct view into how your
target application works "under the hood". It operates as
a web proxy server, and sits as a man-in-the-middle
between your browser and destination web servers. This
lets you intercept, inspect and modify the raw traffic
passing in both directions.
Spider Module
Burp Spider is a tool for automatically crawling web
applications. You can use this in conjunction with manual
mapping techniques to speed up the process of mapping an
application's content and functionality.
Scanner Module
Burp Scanner is a tool for automatically finding security
vulnerabilities in web applications. It is designed to be
used by security testers, and to fit in closely with your
existing techniques and methodologies for performing manual
and semi-automated penetration tests of web applications.
Intruder Module
Burp Intruder is a tool for automating customized attacks
against web applications. It is extremely powerful and
configurable, and can be used to perform a huge range of
tasks, from simple brute-force guessing of web directories
through to active exploitation of complex blind SQL injection
vulnerabilities.
Burp Repeater is a simple tool for manually manipulating
and reissuing individual HTTP requests, and analyzing the
application's responses. You can use Repeater for all
kinds of purposes, such as changing parameter values to
test for input-based vulnerabilities, issuing requests in
a specific sequence to test for logic flaws, and
reissuing requests from Burp Scanner issues to manually
verify reported issues.
