Setting project configurations
Project settings allow a tester to save or set configurations specific to a project or scoped target. These settings are stored within the Project file, which is created upon launching the Burp Suite application. There are multiple subsections available under the Project section, which include Tools, Project, Sessions, and Network. Many of these options are required for pentesters when they’re assessing specific targets, which is why they are covered here. As we iterate through each area, we will provide some recommendations that you may find helpful during your testing.
How to do it…
