🧰 What You Can Do
  • Run Kali Linux Live from USB for security testing and analysis.
  • Install Kali (amd64 or arm64) to an internal drive for a dedicated security workstation or lab box.
  • Practice cybersecurity skills and ethical hacking in a controlled environment.
  • Use built-in tools for network scanning, vulnerability assessment / penetration testing, forensics, password testing, and more.
  • Analyze and troubleshoot systems using Kali’s extensive toolkit.
  • Build a portable security toolkit that goes with you to authorized test environments.
📦 What's Included
  • Bootable Kali Linux Live USB with installer and full desktop environment.
  • Dual USB-A / USB-C connector flash drive (USB 2.x, works in USB 3.0 ports).
  • Both installer types included:

    • arm64 – for compatible ARM-based PCs and mini PCs that support USB boot.
  • Basic boot tips & key guide.
  • Packaging: standard (Clear Box) or gift (Tin Case).
💻 Compatibility & Requirements
  • amd64 installer: Most Intel/AMD 64-bit desktop and laptop PCs (UEFI or Legacy BIOS).

♻️ Give Your Old PC a Second Life

Kali is ideal for turning older but still functional PCs into dedicated lab or training machines for cybersecurity.

Why This Matters

  • Reuses older hardware instead of sending it to e-waste.
  • Separates security testing from your main daily-use system.
  • Great for home labs, student practice rigs, and test benches.

How This USB Helps

  • Boot Kali Live on an old PC and use it as a lab box.
  • Install Kali to a spare drive to create a dedicated security workstation.
  • Keep your main OS separate from testing tools.

Perfect for:

  • Cybersecurity students and enthusiasts building their first lab.
  • Small IT shops needing a portable security toolkit.
  • Reusing older desktops/laptops as permanent lab machines.
🔧 Customizable USB (Optional)

This Kali Linux USB may be customizable within technical and licensing limits. Examples of what may be possible:

  • Adding additional open-source security or forensic tools.
  • Including extra Linux utilities commonly used in your workflow or training environment.
