Enterprise Edition 2021.1

Summary: PortSwigger released Burp Suite Enterprise Edition 2021.1 on Tuesday, 2 February 2021, a maintenance release fixing three bugs: Azure deployment now works as expected, browser-powered scans are supported on cloud deployments, and a prior-release bug that stopped Burp Scanner's embedded browser from starting is resolved. The release also drops AWS CloudFormation and Azure Resource Manager templates, with the company recommending customers wait for a simpler deployment method it says is coming soon.

Bottom line: The embedded browser failure in the previous release meant browser-powered scanning could not start at all, so any scans run on that version may not have covered the JavaScript-driven attack surface Burp Scanner is meant to reach.
