Port Swigger Website Terms of Use

Summary: This is PortSwigger's Website Terms of Use, a legal agreement governing access to portswigger.net and its associated tools and products, requiring users to accept the terms to use the site. The document sets out user obligations including confidentiality of login credentials, restrictions on commercial reuse of content, a prohibition on introducing viruses or launching denial-of-service attacks, and a statement that breaching those provisions would constitute a criminal offence under the Computer Misuse Act 1990.

Bottom line: The terms state that PortSwigger does not guarantee the Websites will be secure or free from bugs or viruses, and place responsibility on users to configure their own IT and run their own virus protection. For a security leader, the vendor behind widely used testing tools is explicitly disclaiming site security while reserving the right to report breaches to law enforcement.
