Kali Linux for Pentesting with support by Kurian

Product Overview

Kali Linux is a Debian Linux distribution specifically designed for Penetration Testing (Pentesting), a cybersecurity procedure companies perform to check the vulnerability of their IT infrastructure from external threats.This AMI is fully configured with the standard set of tools provided by Kali Linux distribution that can be used for pentesting. The Kali Linux desktop could be accessed by the users using Microsoft Remote Desktop, and that is an important feature because some pentesting tools have GUI and accessing the Kali Linux host using SSH alone might not be enough to use all the tools available on the pentesting platform.Kurian Linux AMIs are patched and up-to-date on the day of the release, and the updates are published every quarter. These AMIs are ideal to be used in automated provisioning processes such as that in an auto-scale group without having to worry about the availability of latest patches and the delay of applying those before adding the machines to a cluster.
