 The OWASP Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP) is one of the world’s most popular free security tools and is actively maintained by hundreds of international volunteers*. It can help you automatically find security vulnerabilities in your web applications while you are developing and testing your applications. Its also a great tool for experienced pentesters to use for manual security testing. ZAP 2.7.0 is now available!
Please help us to make ZAP even better for you by answering the ZAP User Questionnaire!For a quick overview of ZAP and an introduction to the official ZAP Jenkins plugin see these tutorial videos on YouTube: For more videos see the links on the wiki videos page.
