What's up guys , it Sumit here,whether you're installing Kali Linux on a virtual machine or dual booting itwith Windows,
Top ten things
these are the top ten things you should do after setting it upto make sure that it's secure and uses the best tools available the first important thing to do, is toset official and correct Kali Linux repositories to do that open up your browserand head to Kali Docs once opened, scroll down and go to sources.list repositories copy this and head to > files other locations computer then open thisetc folder and head to this apt folder from here edit this sources.listfile by erasing all these lines then pasting the ones we copied okay so anotherone of the most important things to do after installing Kali is to update it, soupdate upgrade and disk upgrade your Kali installation simply open up theterminal type in the following apt commands then hit enter and as you can see ourKali installation has started updating simply wait a few seconds until itcompletes Git is a primary tool for copying or cloning code
repositoriesfound on github it is a must-have tool for penetration testers looking toexpand their toolset beyond what's available in the default Kalirepositories to download Git, open up a terminal then simply type apt-getinstall git a multiplexer is a tiling terminalemulator that allows us to open several terminal sessions inside one singlewindow the major benefit to this is being ableto see all of our open terminal sessions at once and not layer the windows on topof each other there are many noteworthy multiplexers Tilix however is an open source and reliable option it is available inKali's apt
repositories and could be installed using this command apt-getinstall Tilix Some versions of Kali are geared towardminimalist pen-testers who prefer not to have hundreds attacking toolspre-installed this means we'll have to install our favorite tools manually, thetypes of tools we use vary based on our skill set in the areas of expertise butthese are some of the most popular hacking tools these tools can beinstalled using this command, I will also put it in the description down below foryou guys (time saver) many applications like the chromiumbrowser and the tor browser should never be opened or used as a root user such applications rely heavily upon low level permissions to deliver some degree ofsecurity it might be beneficial to some users to create a low privileged useraccount for such activities to create a new account simply type add user andname the account, I'm going to name it: tor then create a password it will King you for some information, you can either leave it blank or fill it up it'stotally up to you once created go ahead and add this account to sudo group to do is type in usermod - aG sudo and then the name of the account like this ok our account is now ready to be used TOR is available in
Kali's repositories but anonymity software should be acquired directly from the source further more Kali's version of TOR is not reliably maintained or updated this means we could be missing critical stability and security updates to download TOR directly from its source first add the Tor project repositoriesto your apt repository list by typing in the following command to save time youcan open the description down below and simply copy paste these lines next download the Tor project package signing key and import it into your apt hearingusing this command line you'll see the OK output when the signing key has beenadded to your keyring next update apt using apt - get update
command now to install TOR, use this command type Y to continue and once it's doneyou'll be using the latest version available for TOR dpkg is a powerfultool but it doesn't install dependencies automatically, what we need is somepackage installer that can go out and fetch all required dependencies whileinstalling a .dev package the best one out there is G Debi you can install itusing the following command no Linux installation is completewithout a proper fully fledged FTP Client FileZilla is the best one outthere to install it, use the following command the default password for everyKali Linux installation is the same which makes it very easy to automateattacks also the default SSH keys can allow an attacker to intercept yourcommunications when you're controlling something like the raspberry pi via SSH to change the SSH keys first change into the directory now type in the followingcommand to reset the SSH keys from the default ones for your Kali
