Let's go over a little bit of the history of BackTrack (https://www.backtrack-linux.org/). The BackTrack operating system was developed and maintained by the Auditor Security Collection and Whax organizations back in 2006. At the time, BackTrack was based on the Linux operating system, Ubuntu. Being Linux-based meant that BackTrack provided many opportunities for the penetration tester, with one of its benefits being the ability to boot from a live CD and live USB bootable media. However, the latest version of the BackTrack operating system is BackTrack 5, which was released in 2011 before the project was archived. In 2012, the next-generation operating system, and now successor to BackTrack, was announced, known as Kali Linux, which was built from the ground up. In March 2013, Kali Linux was officially released to the public.
