= What =

The Zed Attack Proxy (ZAP) is an easy to use integrated penetration testing tool for finding vulnerabilities in web applications.

ZAP provides automated scanners as well as a set of tools that allow you to find security vulnerabilities manually.

= Who =

It is designed to be used by people with a wide range of security experience and as such is ideal for developers and functional testers who are new to penetration testing.



The current version of ZAP is 1.4.0.

OWASP ZAP is also the Toolsmith Tool of the Year for 2011!
There are *3* ZAP related Google Summer of Code 2012 projects!

Please also see the *new* Sponsors and Supporters page.

Want a very quick introduction? See the project pamphlet.

For a slightly longer introduction see the project presentation.
