Kali Linux Revealed – Why to Read? User Manual of Kali Linux?

This book is provided by the Offensive Security and is like the user manual of Kali Linux. Kali Linux Revealed provides a detailed overview on Kali Linux. Why it becomes so important to read this book is that it covers all the basics of the Kali Linux such as directory structure (consider it as the my computer in Windows), User groups, Debian Management (consider it like telling you how to install applications or softwares in Microsoft Windows), Basic commands (such as opening, creating, deleting and navigating files and folders in Kali Linux).

The first section of Kali Linux Revealed book will clear all your doubts about What is Kali Linux, Why and Who use Kali Linux, Features of Kali, Policy of Kali OS.

The second section talks about getting hooked up with Kali Linux. It tells you different methods on howto Download and Install Kali Linux, Starting/Booting Up Kali Linux.

The Third section deals with the Linux Fundamentals, As Kali OS is based on Linux so users must know how to operate Kali Linux with the help of commands because Linux Distributions are based on command Line interface (except a few including Ubuntu OS Distro’s). This section also talks about the Linux File system as well which is the most important section in this chapter along with basic linux commands.

The next chapter in the Kali Linux Revealed book talks about installing basic components and configuring basic things.

Heading up is the most important topic in the whole book, Configuring Kali Linux. Actually what you find in this chapter is just like the Top 10 or 5 things to do after installing Kali Linux in your computer. You may also read about it in my post on this topic here.

The next few chapters are not important in my view for a beginner because it deals with reporting bugs and vulnerabilities in Kali Linux OS.

After this comes the chapter on Debian Package management, a bit scary chapter which need a two time’s careful reading to be understood properly.

The eleventh chapter is also a bit informative which tells you about the types of attacks which you will learn i9n your future while using Kali Linux and also the authors of the book conclude hereafter with wishing the reader with a happy journey in the field of Ethical Hacking ahead.
