WHAT IS KALI LINUX?

 

KALI LINUX is basically an operating system like Windows 10, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Mac OS, etc. Ethical hackers have to write a big script or code when they have to perform a task. This takes a lot of effort and it is very time consuming especially when you are writing these scripts in the above mentioned operating systems. If you have to perform any 'Penetration Testing' on a website or on a software , i.e., to find it's vulnerabilities and strengthen it by hacking, then writing those big scripts will take you a lot of time. But what if you get a little help while performing such task which would ease your work.



Well Kali Linux is especially made for such purposes. There are some pre-installed tools in it which help you to write and execute the scripts. Also, you can customize the already existing code to make it better and stronger. There are somewhat 600 Penetration Testing tools available. Above all, it is very helpful for Security Research, Computer forensics, Reverse Engineering.



IS USING KALI LINUX ILLEGAL?



Well, it is true that Kali Linux is used by hackers and is very helpful to those who take up hacking as a field. It is developed for the purpose of hacking. But hacking itself is not illegal until you do it for a bad purpose. Some bad or black hat hackers also use this software for wrong purpose. But that DOES NOT MAKE IT ILLEGAL. It is designed to find weaknesses in a system and strengthening it. It was designed for good purpose. It was designed for ethical or good hackers so that they make a system stronger which in return will keep your personal information, your privacy, etc. safe. KALI LINUX IS COMPLETELY LEGAL.
