Browser & Setup

Burp Suite Pro browser integration, transport, and setup features and their Caido equivalents.

Available

Testing mobile applications

Burp proxies traffic from iOS and Android devices through the intercepting proxy.

Caido supports proxying mobile device traffic the same way as Burp: install Caido's CA certificate on the device and point the proxy settings to your Caido instance. Caido supports mobile proxying natively through its listening proxy.

Resources

External browser configuration

Burp lets you use a system browser other than its embedded browser with the proxy.

Caido supports using a preconfigured browser or manually set any browser's proxy to point at Caido. Caido does not require its own embedded browser for proxy testing.

Resources

Invisible proxying

Burp forwards non-proxy-aware clients through the proxy without explicit proxy configuration.

Caido offers an Invisible Proxy setup to intercept traffic from clients that cannot be configured to use an explicit proxy. This requires network-level forwarding similar to Burp's invisible proxying mode.

Resources

Managing CA certificates

Burp lets you install and manage its CA certificate for intercepting HTTPS traffic.

Caido lets you export and install its CA certificate from Settings → Network → TLS. Certificate management is built into Caido's network settings rather than a separate Burp-style CA tool tab.

Indirectly Available

Burp's browser

Burp ships a Chromium-based browser preconfigured to proxy through Burp with DOM Invader integration.

Caido supports configuring a preconfigured browser to proxy through Caido automatically. The PwnFox plugin integrates multi-profile Firefox containers for parallel sessions. Caido does not ship an embedded browser with DOM testing integration like Burp's browser; pair a system browser with DOMLogger++ for partial DOM sink monitoring.

Not Available

Testing with HTTP/2

Burp lets you send and manipulate HTTP/2 requests, including exclusive attacks.

Caido does not support HTTP/2 in the intercepting proxy or in Replay. Traffic is handled over HTTP/1.1; HTTP/2-specific testing and attacks are not available in Caido today.
