We've moved on to GNOME 3 in this release, marking the end of a long abstinence period. Through our Live Build process, Kali 2.0 now natively supports KDE, GNOME3, Xfce, MATE, e17, lxde and i3wm. With the introduction of this new monitoring system, we will slowly start phasing out the “tool upgrades” option in our bug tracker. With this new system in place, core tool updates will happen more frequently. This script runs daily on a select list of common tools and keeps us alerted if a new tool requires updating. This move is where our choice in Debian as a base system really pays off – we get to enjoy the stability of Debian, while still remaining on the cutting edge.Ĭontinuously Updated Tools, Enhanced WorkflowĪnother interesting development in our infrastructure has been the integration of an upstream version checking system, which alerts us when new upstream versions of tools are released (usually via git tagging). What this means is that we are pulling our packages continuously from Debian Testing (after making sure that all packages are installable) – essentially upgrading the Kali core system, while allowing us to take advantage of newer Debian packages as they roll out. One of the biggest moves we've taken to keep Kali 2.0 up-to-date in a global, continuous manner, is transforming Kali into a rolling distribution. Ready to hear the real news? Take a deep breath, it's a long list. But these bulletpoint items are essentially a side effect of the real changes that have taken place in our development backend.

So, what's new in Kali 2.0? There's a new 4.0 kernel, now based on Debian Jessie, improved hardware and wireless driver coverage, support for a variety of Desktop Environments (gnome, kde, xfce, mate, e17, lxde, i3wm), updated desktop environment and tools – and the list goes on. Today is the day that Kali 2.0 is officially released. With the end of the cons, we now find ourselves smack in the middle of the most significant release of Kali since 2013.

But the excitement doesn't end for us just yet. With the help of a few good people, the Dojo rooms were set up ready for the masses – where many generated their very own Kali 2.0 ISOs for the first time. We're still buzzing and recovering from the Black Hat and DEF CON conferences where we finished presenting our new Kali Linux Dojo, which was a blast. Our Next Generation Penetration Testing Platform De complete release notes voor deze uitgave kunnen hieronder worden gevonden. Verder is Kali Linux nu een zogenaamde rolling distribution, wat betekent dat het makkelijker is om updates te installeren. In versie 2.0 treffen we een geheel vernieuwde interface aan, die in plaats van diverse menu's nu toegang tot de tools via een dock geeft. Deze Linux-distributie, de opvolger van BackTrack, richt zich op het testen van beveiligingen en wordt daarom ook wel een penetration testing suite genoemd.
