Overall Satisfaction with Kali Linux

Kali Linux is used by my organization's security consultants and specialists to perform and verify applications vulnerabilities, perform random testing, and simulating trainings for new hires to be familiarised with company security policies, process and practices.
  • Open source
  • Suite of tools for PT
  • NEtHunter
  • Support for forensic
  • Network vulnerabilities
  • Windows support
  • Pen testing
  • Vulnerabilities scanning
  • Multi environs
  • Costs
  • Time taken to setup
  • Configurations needed for each use
Different suite of tools and need of specialists to be familiar with the tools to use the best features. Most of the users will be familiar with Kali Linux compared with Blackbox. But easy to switch between the two and is more to complement with each other on the areas needed to be tested.

The tools are useful to guide security specialists to perform PT and scanning of the applications. Users do not need much training to start using the tools and explanations in place to guide the users when they are using the tools. Most of the time results are valid and be repeated again and again to demonstrate the vulnerabilities.
