Custom scan configuration settings - Port Swigger
Summary: PortSwigger's documentation describes how Burp Suite DAST custom scan configurations let users set request throttling, crawl and audit behavior, NTLM and HTTP Basic authentication credentials, upstream proxy servers, and multiple client TLS certificates, applied at the site, folder, or subfolder level. It also notes that Burp Collaborator uses PortSwigger's shared public server by default, for which PortSwigger makes no warranty about availability or performance, and that a private Collaborator server can be specified instead.
What's compelling: PortSwigger states plainly that it makes no warranty about the availability or performance of its public Collaborator server, and that an outage or degradation there can affect Collaborator-related functionality within Burp - so any detection that depends on it inherits that risk.
