 +Most bug hunters open Burp Suite the moment they get a target.
 +I wait.
 +
 +Here are the 5 things I do before touching Burp Suite:
 +
 +  - Google Dorking the target \\ site:target.com ext:php OR ext:json OR ext:env \\You'd be surprised what's indexed that shouldn't be.
 +  - Subdomain enumeration \\subfinder + httpx pipeline.\\I'm looking for forgotten dev/staging subdomains.\\They're almost always less hardened than the main app.
 +  - JavaScript file hunting\\I run waybackurls + gf on every JS file.\\Devs leave API keys, internal routes, and hardcoded tokens here more than anywhere else.
 +  - Reading the job listings\\The company's open roles tell me their exact tech stack.\\"We use AWS Lambda, React, and PostgreSQL" = I know exactly what to test.
 +  - Checking old vulnerability disclosures\\Search HackerOne's disclosed reports for the same target or similar tech.\\Patterns repeat. Developers make the same mistakes twice.
 +
 +Burp Suite is a powerful tool.
 +But it's useless without knowing where to point it.
 +
 +Recon is where 80% of my findings actually start.
 +
 +Save this. You'll use it.
