Summary

This chapter shows you two ways to set up Kali Linux so that you can use your company-issued Windows laptop, or any other laptop, to get a better performance out of Kali Linux and not to have requisition to a new machine just for Kali. Most enterprises do not allow you to dual-boot your computer, and running Kali on a VM throttles the resources for your Kali installation. Further, this chapter shows you the two reporting tools we use, and the situations where each of these tools makes the most sense. We showed you how to set up OpenVAS for the first time. We also showed you how to run services on Kali Linux. Finally, we introduced the top ten Kali security tools we use every day to perform penetration tests on Windows networks.
