Burp suite tip / tutorial: renaming tabs

This will be a quick and simple tip that you may not have been aware of, you can rename tabs within Burp. A friend of mine who works out of Raleigh turned me onto this. I find new sometimes obvious and hidden features in Burp all the time and this is one of them.

I find this feature handy especially in a large application as I can easily keep track of what I’m testing.  I use the tab renaming on the Repeater and Intruder functionality. In order to rename a tab simply double click the tab which will allow you to edit the tab.

Hope this simple tip helps you perform better application pen testing.
