Welcome to the HUD

The HUD is a completely new way to interact with ZAP.
It overlays security information on top of the application you are testing and allows you to access key ZAP features.
It is easier for people new to security to understand but it also allows experienced penetration testers to focus on the application they are testing.

By default, the HUD is injected into all of the HTML pages proxied through the ZAP desktop. You can turn it on and off easily using the [green radar] button on the ZAP toolbar. It is not injected by default into pages proxied through ZAP when it is running in headless/daemon mode as that could break unit tests. This behaviour can be changed via the HUD options.

This tutorial will take you through the HUD features and explain how you can use them.
