Kali Linux
1.
2. INTRODUCTION
• Kali Linux is a Debian-derived Linux distribution And
a member of UNIX OS Family.
• Maintained and Funded by Offensive Security
Limited.
• Primarily designed for Penetration Testing and
Digital Forensics.
• Developed by Mati Aharoni and Devon Kearns of
Offensive Security.
• Rewrite of Backtrack.
3. History
• Knoppix , ancestor of Kali Linux was the first ever
bootable Live Linux Operating system , which is still in
existence.
• Knoppix project was then forked into Whoppix and then
re-forked into WHAX.
• WHAX was then re-branded and streamlined into the
BackTrack , the predecessor of Kali Linux.
• BackTrack had a long reign of almost seven years as the
pentesters and hackers choice.
• BackTrack is a customised native environment dedicated
to hacking. As of 2011 it was used by more than four
million amateur and professional security researchers.
4. History contd…
• The latest version, BackTrack 5, is built on Ubuntu
Lucid and contains some 350 penetration testing
tools.
• However, as of March 2013 the venerated distro
was decommissioned and replaced by Kali Linux.
• The main issue with BackTrack v1-v5 was that it
was a headache for dependencies. Too many
pentesting tools embedded within BackTrack all
struggled to co-exist within the dependencies.
5. History contd…
• The solution was to rebuild the distro bottom-up
by making Kali Debian based.
• Kali Linux has 300 tools which automatically work
within the Kali ecosphere. Kali also has been
created with the clean “File system Hierarchy
Standard” and offers vast plug and play wireless
support.
• The main attraction was the ARM support
provided by Kali Linux. Incidentally, you can also
create your own .iso file with Kali through the
Debian lifebuild feature.
