Lightbulb Kali Offensive/Defensive Distro Crossover


Hello Linux experts,

Kali Linux user here. After using Kali for a while, I recently discovered Kali Purple by accident and found it has a lot of useful tools I could benefit from, but it appears not to have all the tools from the offensive side. Seeing as Kali has the option to create a custom .iso file, has anyone ever merged the two distros? Is this even possible or do I need to install each Purple tool manually to Kali if/when I need them?

This is not for professional/enterprise use, this is educational exclusively.

Thanks,

-LinuxMarshal

If you're using Kali, you should be aware that it's really nothing more than any other Linux distro, but has tools and customization already loaded/built in. ANY distro of Linux can do exactly what Kali does.

Since you know the tools you want...you can install them, as you would on any other distro.
