    Downloading Kali Linux
    Before getting started, you need to download and install Kali Linux on your 
    computer. This is the Linux distribution we will be working with throughout 
    this book. Linux was first developed by Linus Torvalds in 1991 as an open 
    source alternative to Unix. Since it is open source, volunteer developers code 
    the kernel, the utilities, and the applications. This means that there is no 
    overriding corporate entity overseeing development, and as a result, conven-
    tions and standardization are often lacking.
    Kali Linux was developed by Offensive Security as a hacking operat-
    ing system built on a distribution of Linux called Debian. There are many 
    distributions of Linux, and Debian is one of the best. You are probably most 
    familiar with Ubuntu as a popular desktop distribution of Linux. Ubuntu is 
    also built on Debian. Other distributions include Red Hat, CentOS, Mint, 
    Arch, and SUSE. Although they all share the same Linux kernel (the heart 
    of the operating system that controls the CPU, RAM, and so on), each has its 
    own utilities, applications, and choice of graphical interface (GNOME, KDE, 
    and others) for different purposes. As a result, each of these distributions of 
    Linux looks and feels slightly different. Kali was designed for penetration tes-
    ters and hackers and comes with a significant complement of hacking tools.
    I strongly recommend that you use Kali for this book. Although you can 
    use another distribution, you will likely have to download and install the 
    various tools we will be using, which could mean many hours downloading 
    and installing tools. In addition, if that distribution is not built on Debian, 
    there may be other minor differences. You can download and install Kali 
    from https://www.kali.org/.
    From the home page, hover over the Downloads link at the top of the 
    page and click Download Kali Linux. On the Downloads page you’ll be 
    faced with multiple download choices. It’s important to choose the right 
    download. Along the left side of the table, you will see the image name
    which is the name of the version that the link downloads. For instance, 
    you may see an image name called Kali Linux 64 Bit, meaning it’s the full 
    Kali Linux and is suitable for 64-bit systems—most modern systems use a 
    64-bit Intel or AMD CPU. To determine what type of CPU is on your sys-
    tem, go to Control Panel4System and Security4System, and it should be 
    listed. If your system is 64-bit, download and install the 64-bit version of 
    the full Kali (not Light or Lxde, or any of the other alternatives).
    If you are running an older computer with a 32-bit CPU, you will need 
    to install the 32-bit version, which appears lower on the page.
    You have a choice of downloading via HTTP or Torrent. If you choose 
    HTTP, Kali will download directly to your system just like any download, and 
    it will be placed in your Downloads folder. The torrent download is the peer-to- 
    peer download used by many file-sharing sites. You will need a torrenting

    Introduction
    application like BitTorrent to do this. The Kali file will then download to the 
    folder in which the torrenting application stores its downloads.
    There are other versions for other types of CPUs, such as the commonly 
    used ARM architecture found in so many mobile devices. If you are using a 
    Raspberry Pi, tablet, or other mobile device (phone users will likely prefer 
    Kali NetHunter), make certain you download and install the ARM architec-
    ture version of Kali by scrolling down to Download ARM images and click-
    ing Kali ARM Images.
    You have Kali downloaded, but before you install anything, I want to 
    talk a bit about virtual machines. Generally, for the beginner, installing 
    Kali into a virtual machine is the best solution for learning and practicing.
