Hi folks,

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

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 as well as being a useful addition
to an experienced pen testers toolbox.
