Case Project: Research Kali Linux
Kali Linux is a unique distribution of Linux in that it is designed specifically for enhancing the security of a network. The operating system can be run- from a flash drive or CD, and includes an impressive array of security tools.
In this project, you research the features of Kali Linux, and, optionally, install the system on a flash drive:
1. Spend some time researching Kali Linux, and answer the following questions:
a. Who created Kali Linux? What distribution was the predecessor to Kali Linux?
b. What is the main purpose(s) of the Kali Linux distribution?
c. What are the installation options for Kali Linux? For example, can you use a USB flash drive? Can you dual-boot Kali Linux next to other operating systems? Which ones?
Remember that hacking a network without the owner's express permission is illegal. If you decide to download and use Kali Linux, be sure to keep it inside your own network.
