Roadmap
 Origin of an OS: From UNIX to Kali Linux
 Linux Architectures and Ubiquity
 What is Kali and why should I use it?
 Kali’s New Features
 Kali’s Toolkit
 Installing Kali
 Summary
UNIX to Kali Timeline
 1968: E.W Dijkstra develops MULTICS (Multiplexed
Information and Computing Service) in the Netherlands

 1969: Bell telephone (AT&T) lab researcher Ken


Thompson developed a new system using MULTICS as
part of a team. His coworker Brian Kernighan dubbed it
UNICS (UNiplexed Information and Computing
Service). It was later changed to UNIX.

 Milestone: The UNIX operating system was born.


UNIX to Kali Timeline
 1969-1973: Bell Telephone researcher Dennis Richie
develops the C language as a systems programming
language for UNIX.
 1970s: UNIX versions 6 and 7 were developed, first in

B and Assembly than C. Originally for academic use,


later sold to vendors.
 1987: A Unix-like system based on microkernel design

known as MINIX was developed.

 Milestone: C language developed.


UNIX to Kali Timeline
 1980s-1990s: The “UNIX Wars” occur, vendors
struggle to standardize UNIX.
 1991:Linus Torvalds developed a new operating

system called Linux, which is similar to MINIX.


 1990s-Today: Various UNIX and UNIX/Linux-like

distributions are released, such as: GNU, OS X,


Debian, and Ubuntu.

 Milestone: Linux was born.


UNIX to Kali History
 2006: Linux distribution BackTrack was released by
Offensive Security. It becomes the definitive Penetration
Testing platform available.

 2012: The final BackTrack version, Backtrack 5 R3, is


released.

 2013: Kali Linux, a.k.a. BackTrack 6, is released by


Offensive Security.

 Milestones: BackTrack is born, then Kali.


Basic Linux Kernel
What is Kali Linux?
 Kali Linux is an advanced Penetration Testing
and Security Auditing Linux distribution
(distro). Named after a Hindu god.
 It was designed to replace the BackTrack Linux
distro.
 A Linux distro is a operating system based off
the Linux kernel.
 Think Windows NT and all the Windows
distributions (XP, Vista, 7, 8, etc.)
 Linux is itself based off the UNIX kernel.
 UNIX > Linux > BackTrack > Kali.
Why use Kali?
 It is FREE!!!!!
 300+ applications, from password crackers to
digital forensics software.
 Vast wireless device support (ARM processors).
 Completely Customizable.
 Multilingual Support.
 Secure Development Environment.
 Open source Git tree.
 Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS) Compliant.
 Gnu Privacy Guard (GPG) secure signed packages
and repos.
Kali’s New Features
 Switched from Ubuntu to Debian.
 FHS and Debian compliant.
 Can now bootstrap and customize Kali ISOs.
 Streaming security and package updates from

Debian.
 Expanded ARM development.
Kali’s New Features (cont)
 Easy upgrade to future versions.
 Customizable desktop environment.

Automatable Kali Installations.


 Streamlined Development Process.
 Long Term Tool Packaging and Maintenance.
Kali’s Toolkit (300+!)

 Metasploit  Sqlninja
 Nmap  Proxy Strike
 Wireshark  Ghost Phisher
 Aircrack-ng  CryptCat
 John the Ripper  WebScarab
 CaseFile  Android-sdk
 THC-Hydra  Maskprocessor
 Arduino  SIPArmyKnife
 diStorm3  FERN Wi-Fi Cracker
Summary
 Bell Telephone (AT&T)’s UNIX > Linus
Torvalds's Linux > Offensive Security’s Linux
Distribution BackTrack > Kali Linux a.k.a.
BackTrack 6.
 Kali is the premier operating system for

Penetration Testing and other related uses.


 Kali was built from the ground up to replace

BackTrack.
 There are many platforms and installation

methods that are Kali-compatible.
