Distributions Linux

An Arch Linux repository and live-ISO project bringing a curated penetration-testing and security-research tool catalog to Arch, in the same 'repository-first' spirit as BlackArch.

An Ubuntu-based penetration-testing and security-assessment distribution, developed in Italy, built on an Xfce desktop with a curated (rather than maximal) tool selection.

An Arch Linux-based penetration-testing distribution and repository offering one of the largest single collections of security tools of any distro -- well over 2,800 at last count.

An official Fedora Lab spin preloaded with security auditing, forensics, and testing tools on top of Fedora's standard RPM base and Xfce desktop.

The industry-standard penetration-testing distribution, maintained by Offensive Security and pre-loaded with hundreds of security auditing and exploitation tools.

Offensive Security's defensive-side counterpart to Kali Linux, bundling SIEM, SOC, and blue-team tooling on the same Kali base instead of offensive/red-team tools.

A privacy-focused live distribution that chains a VPN and Tor together automatically on boot, alongside DNS encryption and anti-forensic tools, aimed at users who want anonymity configured for them out of the box.

A Fedora-based live distribution focused specifically on network traffic analysis, packet capture, and network security monitoring, with a browser-based management console (NST WUI) on top.

A Debian-based security distribution similar in mission to Kali Linux, but positioned as lighter-weight and also usable as a privacy-respecting everyday desktop.

A Gentoo-based live security distribution, giving penetration testers Gentoo's source-based, compile-from-scratch flexibility applied to a security-tool-focused overlay.

A security-focused desktop OS built on the Xen hypervisor that isolates everything -- apps, files, network access -- into separate, disposable virtual machines called 'qubes.'

A Debian Testing-based distribution built around KDE Plasma and Tor, aimed at users who want an anonymous-browsing setup on a traditional, full-featured Plasma desktop rather than a stripped-down live system.

The Amnesic Incognito Live System -- a live, boot-from-USB OS that forces all network traffic through Tor and leaves no trace on the host machine once shut down.

A two-VM anonymity system where a 'Gateway' machine routes all traffic through Tor and a separate 'Workstation' VM does all actual work, so a compromised application can never learn your real IP address.
