Kali Linux tutorials

Kali Linux how-to guides — install on VM, USB, or Raspberry Pi, set up pentest labs, and use Metasploit, proxychains, and security tools.

Kali Linux is a Debian-based distribution aimed at penetration testing, security research, and hands-on lab work—not general-purpose desktop use.

Guides here walk through installing Kali on VMs, USB sticks, Raspberry Pi, and other targets, then configuring labs and common offensive-security tools.

You will find practical setup articles for DVWA, Juice Shop, Metasploit, proxychains, and vulnerability scanning workflows.

For broader defensive and hardening topics, browse the Security category alongside the install links below.
