I've always used it during my engagements, and I occasionally (but rarely) use Microsoft Windows OS.
Kali Linux contains tons of tools dedicated to penetration testing, and it would be a big challenge to get used to all of them at once. In this chapter, I will show you my most often used commands. I keep them with me when I'm on an engagement, in order to manipulate the operating system...
