Kali Linux (formerly known as BackTrack) is an Debian-based distribution with a collection of security and forensics tools. It features timely security updates, support for the ARM architecture, a choice of four popular desktop environments, and seamless upgrades to newer versions. Kali Linux is a Debian-based distribution which features several security and forensics tools. The project has adopted a rolling release approach to new versions. The new release, Kali Linux 2017.1, features drivers for RTL8812AU wireless chipsets, improved GPU support and there are now Azure and AWS images of Kali Linux for cloud instances. "Finally, its here! Were happy to announce the availability of the Kali Linux 2017.1 rolling release, which brings with it a bunch of exciting updates and features. As with all new releases, you have the common denominator of updated packages, an updated kernel that provides more and better hardware support, as well as a slew of updated tools - but this release has a few more surprises up its sleeve. A while back, we received a feature request asking for the inclusion of drivers for RTL8812AU wireless chipsets. These drivers are not part of the standard Linux kernel, and have been modified to allow for injection. Why is this a big deal? This chipset supports 802.11 AC, making this one of the first drivers to bring injection-related wireless attacks to this standard.

About teen weeks ago I bought a GPD Pocket 7 a mini-PC the size of a portable video game console tha t sports a quad-core Intel Z8750 CPU, 8Gb DDR3 RAM, 128Gb Samsung eMMC for storage, 7000 mAh battery that manufacturer says should be good for up to 12 hous of run time, WiFi, bluetooth, HDMI port and all the things what would you want in a laptop of this size. The little computer measures just 7.1″ x 4.2″ x 0.7″ which makes it just a little larger than a big smartphone when the lid is closed. This thing looks adorable. It has the stylized Apple-style metal case rather than the more common plastic but whether you can actually fit the GPD Pocket in your pocket depends on how big your pockets are. GamePad Digital (GPD) a technology company based in Shenzen, China. Among other products, they have created several handheld video game consoles which run Android on ARM architecture and x86 Windows. And while Pocket it is not exactly cheap it is possible to find it at $599 the same price of the original GPD crowdfunding. As is often the case with notebooks and Linux, the support shortly after hardware launch leaves much to be desired, even when the manufacturer offers its own linux and community driven support is already included in the recent versions of the Linux Kernel. Unfortunately the latest Kali 2017.3 ships with kernel 4.13.10 and you’ll really need kernel 4.14.X for things to work out of the box on GPD. What people are doing meanwhile is installing ad-hoc Ubuntu or Xubuntu images (I previously wrote about) from a pendrive and then installing all the Kali tools they need via scripts like Katoolin (https://github.com/LionSec/katoolin) which will effectively convert almost any debian-based distro into a (more-or-less) fully-fledged Kali platform. And so it was until Re4son , a well respected hacker know for Raspberry Pi pentest oriented Linux builds, took things into his hands. Re4son has released Pocket-Kali a custom Kali Linux 2017.3 ISO image for the GPD Pocket. Now installing Kali in the GPD is just as easy as in a vanilla PC. These are the steps you should follow: The Pocket-Kali image comes with only “top10" & “wireless” set of Kali tools to keep the size down. Just run “kali-linux-full” to get the whole shebang. If you choose to install Kali alongside with Windows 10 keep in mind that it is possible that after the installation Windows option do not appear in the boot grub menu. The solution is as easy as running “grub-update” from a root console and restarting the system. After some testing of Kali-Pi current Version: 4.15.0-rc4-re4son i have managed to get Kali up and running on the GPD pocket and everything works fine the fan, Wake/Sleep, WiFi/Bluetooth, proper screen rotation, graphics everything the only problem I have is I can’t get audio working even as apparently is supported by kernel but needs some playing around I can live without so I’m willing to sacrifice. ( UPDATE 2017/12/27: Sound is now working) Remember that the mini GPD does not have an Ethernet port, but that something easily solved with one USB-C gigabit ethernet adapters. Thanks to its size and Kali Linux the GPD becomes an all around device for the Pen-testing on the go. Couple it with some external devices such as high power wifi/bluetooth or SDR radio receiver to turn it into the ultimate portable wardriving machine. Kali Linux 2017.3 Release. We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of Kali Linux 2017.3, which includes all patches, fixes, updates, and improvements since our last release. In this release, the kernel has been updated to 4.13.10 and it includes some notable improvements: In addition to the new kernel and all of the updates and fixes we pull from Debian, we have also updated our packages for Reaver, PixieWPS, Burp Suite, Cuckoo, The Social Engineering Toolkit, and more. Take a look at the Kali Changelog to see what else has been updated in this release, or read on to see what else is new. New Tool Additions. Since our last release in September, we’ve added four new tools to the distribution, most of which focus on the always-lucrative Open-source information gathering. These new tools are not included in the default installation but after an ‘apt update’, you can check out and install the ones that interest you. We, of course, think they’re all interesting and hope you do as well. InSpy. InSpy is a small but useful utility that performs enumeration on LinkedIn and can find people based on job title, company, or email address. CherryTree. The oft-requested CherryTree has now been added to Kali for all of your note-taking needs. CherryTree is very easy to use and will be familiar to you if you’ve used any of the “big-name” note organization applications. Sublist3r. Sublist3r is a great application that enables you to enumerate subdomains across multiple sources at once. It has integrated the venerable SubBrute, allowing you to also brute force subdomains using a wordlist. OSRFramework. Another excellent OSINT tool that has been added to the repos is OSRFramework, a collection of scripts that can enumerate users, domains, and more across over 200 separate services. Massive Maltego Metamorphosis. One of our favourite applications in Kali has always been Maltego, the incredible Open-source information gathering tool from Paterva, and the equally incredible Casefile. These two applications had always been separate entities (get it?) but as of late September, they are now combined into one amalgamated application that still allows you to run Maltego Community Edition and Casefile, but now it also works for those of you with Maltego Classic or Maltego XL licenses. As always, the tools perform wonderfully and look great doing it. Get the Goods. As usual, we have updated our standard ISO images, VMware and VirtualBox virtual machines, ARM images, and cloud instances, all of which can be found via the Kali Downloads page. If you find any bugs, please open a ticket on our bug tracker. We keep an eye on social media but there is no substitute for a well-written bug report and many bugs that get reported to us end up getting fixed in Debian, which then benefits all of its derivatives.

Naveen P. [email protected] [email protected] SRM Institute of Science and Technology, SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Ramapuram, Chennai, Tamil Nadu Ramapuram, Chennai, Tamil Nadu ABSTRACT Backdoors are one of the most complicated types of Android malware. A normal backdoor carries out its functionalities such as installing itself into the system directory, disabling system apps, or gaining access to app’s data, to steal and upload sensitive info, download and ask to install applications and set up mobile botnets when setting proper Android permissions. This project focus on how Android devices are hacked using backdoors and how they can be stopped from doing so. The backdoor application when installed and turned on the mobile allows an attacker to read, write and modify the data. Due to Backdoor attacks Confidentiality, Integrity, and Accountability of the information security are lost. When the application is installed on the victim's mobile and the victim opens the application it creates the meter-preter session which permits the attacker to access functions like webcam, contacts, read SMS, send SMS, read call log, write call log, access storage, install applications.

I have made both about three years ago, and I haven't used Windows since then. My own laptop is cheap HP Stream 4 MB/32 GB.

  • A Study of the Application of Free and Open Source Software Licensing Ideas to Art and Cultural Production
    Sandbox Culture A Study of the Application of Free and Open Source Software Licensing Ideas to Art and Cultural Production Aymeric Mansoux Supervisor: Matthew Fuller Thesis presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Cultural Studies, Goldsmiths, University of London, February 2017 I, Aymeric Mansoux, confirm that the work presented in this thesis ismy own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Date: February 19, 2017 Signed: Abstract In partial response to the inability of intellectual property laws to adapt to data-sharing over computer networks, several initiatives have proposed techno-legal alternatives to encourage the free circulation and transfor- mation of digital works. These alternatives have shaped part of contem- porary digital culture for more than three decades and are today often associated with the “free culture” movement. The different strands of this movement are essentially derived from a narrower concept of soft- ware freedom developed in the nineteen-eighties, and which is enforced within free and open source software communities. This principle was the first significant effort to articulate a reusable techno-legal template to work around the limitations of intellectual property laws. It also of- fered a vision of network culture where community participation and sharing was structural. From alternate tools and workflow systems, artist-run servers, net- work publishing experiments, open data and design lobbies, cooperative and collaborative frameworks, but also novel copyright licensing used by both non-profit organisations and for-profit corporations, the impact on cultural production of practices developed in relation to the ideas of iii free and open source software has been both influential and broadly ap- plied.

Raspberry Pi is small but powerful credit card sized little computer, but before doing anything awesome, you need to configure Raspberry Pi kit and install an operating system. Without an operating system Raspberry Pi is just a piece of silicon, fiberglass, and a few other semiconductor materials. This paper shed the light on different operating systems available for Raspberry Pi. We are going to compare them based on their emergent features, that makes them different than other Many from the available lists of operating systems, each one of them are segregated based on their applications, features and specifications. We have taken the 8 different operating system on our radar most use for Raspberry PiincludingRaspbian, Pidora, ArchLinux, OSMC, RetroPie, RISC OS, Firefox OS and Kali Linux. This paper focuses on the which operating system is capable and useful for particular needs and purposes.

  • Top 25 Best Kali Linux Tools for Beginners (Source)
    Kali Linux For Beginners Glen Maxson Center for Learning in Retirement Spring 2019 What is Kali Linux • Kali Linux, (first released on the 13th March, 2013) which was formally known as BackTrack, developed by the security firm Offensive Security, is a forensic and security-focused distribution based on Debian’s Testing branch. Kali Linux is designed with penetration testing, data recovery and threat detection in mind. • Kali Linux is free, and has 600+ penetration testing tools included. But first a caution and some advice • Kali Linux isn’t recommended for beginners. Period. This is the first thing you should learn. It is a Linux Distribution geared towards Security Professionals. • During penetration testing, it is crucial to prepare to stay anonymous. Don’t fool yourself by revealing your own identity while hacking, cover it! Kali Install Modes - Basic Differences (source) 1. Live Mode - boots using the USB drive so we run Kali from USB instead of running our main system. This allows us to inspect the system without worrying about locked/running processes. Live mode does not save changes. If you run reports, generate logs or save any data then it will be wiped when you reboot. Changes are not saved. 2. Live Mode (failsafe) - same as above but a bit more robust in case the system fails. Nicer to your devices. 3. Live Mode (forensic) - nothing loads, runs or happens unless it is initiated by you. USB devices do not auto mount and the internal hard drive is not touched. Nothing happens until you make it happen. Very good for professional forensic work.

  • The Following Distributions Match Your Criteria (Sorted by Popularity): 1. Linux Mint (1) Linux Mint Is an Ubuntu-Based Distribu
    The following distributions match your criteria (sorted by popularity): 1. Linux Mint (1) Linux Mint is an Ubuntu-based distribution whose goal is to provide a more complete out-of-the-box experience by including browser plugins, media codecs, support for DVD playback, Java and other components. It also adds a custom desktop and menus, several unique configuration tools, and a web-based package installation interface. Linux Mint is compatible with Ubuntu software repositories. 2. Mageia (2) Mageia is a fork of Mandriva Linux formed in September 2010 by former employees and contributors to the popular French Linux distribution. Unlike Mandriva, which is a commercial entity, the Mageia project is a community project and a non-profit organisation whose goal is to develop a free Linux-based operating system. 3. Ubuntu (3) Ubuntu is a complete desktop Linux operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. The Ubuntu community is built on the ideas enshrined in the Ubuntu Manifesto: that software should be available free of charge, that software tools should be usable by people in their local language and despite any disabilities, and that people should have the freedom to customise and alter their software in whatever way they see fit. "Ubuntu" is an ancient African word, meaning "humanity to others". The Ubuntu distribution brings the spirit of Ubuntu to the software world. 4. Fedora (4) The Fedora Project is an openly-developed project designed by Red Hat, open for general participation, led by a meritocracy, following a set of project objectives. The goal of The Fedora Project is to work with the Linux community to build a complete, general purpose operating system exclusively from open source software.
