Scanner Menu in Burp Suite Professional

Maineffory | Last updated: Dec 16, 2019 10:44AM UTC

I have observed that there is no scanner bar in the burp suite professional I downloaded over the weekend. This bar/menu is available on several tutorials I looked through e.g. this - https://support.portswigger.net/customer/portal/articles/1964140-using-burp-to-test-session-token-handling. Has the scanner menu been replaced ?

Hi, What version of Burp Professional are you using? We would always recommend that you use the current version in order to benefit from the latest functionality and bug fixes. The latest version of Burp Professional is 2.1.06. Burp 2.x moved to a task based model. With the new task-based model, you can configure multiple parallel scans, each with their own settings, and independently monitor and control each task. You can initiate a new scan from the Dashboard by clicking New scan and then configuring your scan details from here. Please let us know if you require any further assistance with this.
