Configuring Safari to work with Burp Suite - Port Swigger

Summary: PortSwigger published a one-minute guide for configuring Safari to route traffic through Burp Suite for manual testing with Burp Proxy. The steps cover opening Safari Preferences, going to the Advanced tab, clicking Change Settings under Proxies to open the network adapter settings, and repeating the process for the Secure Web Proxy (HTTPS) checkbox.
What you should know: The guide notes these steps are only needed for an external browser, since Burp's own browser is preconfigured for Burp Proxy and opens from the Proxy > Intercept tab - a reminder that every extra browser a tester configures by hand is another place proxy settings can be missed.
