User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	Balena No answers on this topic	Offensive Security Kali Linux is especially well suited in environments where high security is needed for your custom developed applications. This is well suited for offensive testing your high security in house developed applications. It is also very good for doing penetration testing on in house developed applications and safe guarding them from external attackers. Kali Linux is tough for use as a day to day Linux operating system as this was never intended to be used by beginners and occasional Linux users. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
