Summary

In this chapter, we saw how to go about creating a basic process for data backup and configuration backup. This is done via saving the state of the application and being able to restore the same state. This is a Pro-only feature, but some testers figured out how to chain Burp Suite and OWASP ZAP to get similar functionality with the free version of Burp. We also looked at automatic backup of data, scheduled saving of state, and logging functionality for all HTTP requests and responses.

Burp Suite provides enough tools for most of us to create a robust backup and recovery strategy if we ever need it. Keeping the data of all projects separate and password-protected is a good way to ensure that no leakage happens and that mistakes don't cause any irreversible issues for us.

We have almost reached the end. The next chapter will cover all the helpful and wonderful resources and links available to use and work with Burp Suite.
