Using an AMI to launch an instance

Burp Suite Enterprise Edition is preinstalled in the Burp Suite Enterprise Edition AMI. To see a full list of AMI IDs and the regions we support, see Published AMIs.

We recommend using CloudFormation to deploy the Burp Suite Enterprise Edition AMI:

Create a stack

  1. Download the CloudFormation Template yaml file.
  2. Log in to your AWS account and go to the CloudFormation console.
  3. Create a stack with new resources.
  4. Upload the CloudFormation template.
  5. Enter the Stack name and ImageID of the Burp Suite Enterprise Edition AMI for your region.

Configure your instance

  1. Set an InstanceType that meets the system requirements. If the InstanceType you require isn't listed, edit the AllowedValues for the InstanceType in the CloudFormation template.
  2. In the KeyName field, enter the name of the KeyPair that will be used to access the instance.
  3. If you are storing credentials or settings in SSM or Secrets Manager, enter the name of your IAM instance profile in the IaminstanceProfile field.
  4. Under Network Configuration, enter the SubnetID and SecurityGroups values for the instance.
  5. Enter the values for the Database Configuration. For more information, see Setting up your external database (Kubernetes). We recommend you use Vals to avoid storing passwords in plain text.
  6. For the Web Server Configuration, select whether the webserver is using TLS (HTTPS). If you set UseHttps to true, enter the HttpsCertificate and HttpsPassphrase.
  7. We recommend that you leave the Resource Allocation Configuration settings blank, to use the default values. If you need to increase the resource values, see Kubernetes container system requirements.
  8. If you are storing the images used by the AMI in a private container registry, enter the ContainerRegistry value.
  9. Click Next.
  10. Enter the Configure stack options values as required, and click Next.

Create your instance

  1. In the Review and create window, check the configuration and then click Submit.
  2. Wait for the stack to be created.
  3. To navigate to your newly created EC2 instance, go to the Resources tab of your stack and click the link in the Physical ID column.
  4. In the Instances window, select the instance and copy and paste the IP address or DNS name into a browser. The Burp Suite Enterprise Edition console will open.

If this is the first time that you have used the database with Burp Suite Enterprise Edition, you will be prompted to create the administrator user credentials. For more information, see Creating the admin user.
