Getting started with Kali Linux

Linux is a one of the much admired and loved OSs by IT Pros, ethical hackers and computer enthusiasts. After mastering Windows and macOS, it's time to switch over to Linux. Many must have used it. It has numerous distros (flavours), available free all of them beeing open source and free with GNU Public license.
Linux is a way ahead when it comes to hacking. It goes to the side of being geek-friendly rather than average user-friendly.
And if you're one of those techies, I bet, Kali Linux is the best for you.
You can get it from its official site. After getting the .iso image, you can just run it inside your virtual machine, boot live from the USB or CD/DVD, or just install it on your hard disk. And you can also use the 'live persistence' so that all changes will be saved right into your USB drive which you can carry everywhere you go with all your apps and settings preserved.
The OS itself doesn't demand that much high specs and it can run on old hardware too.
After booting, you'll find lots of built-in tools for different information secuirty tasks like Penetration Testing, Security research, Computer Forensics and Reverse Engineering.
Talking of the user base, you'll find a gigantic community on the Internet to help you out.
So go, get started with the world of Kali.

Amazon’s Alexa can now listen and respond to whispers, and she will whisper back. Now first, this might set off another wave of anxiety for privacy advocates. Your virtual assistant is not only spying on you and potentially recording or storing your conversations, now she can do even if you tried to keep your voice down. Amazon’s team just made that sensitive microphone function even more acutely. Video demonstrating Alexa whisper: So, why do we need to whisper in the first place? Will it come handy in anyway? Yes. If you whisper, “Echo, play a lullaby,” for the infant who’s almost asleep in your arms, Echo will whisper back, “Here’s a station for lullabies from your Amazon Music library,” instead of screaming at  full startling volume. What's more? Whisper is not the only important feature that will come to Amazon Echo devices this year, we also have bunch of new ones. Guard : Guard will let you say, “Alexa, I’m leaving,” and the device will automatically acti...

Microsoft Edge Arrived for Android and iOS

Last week, Microsoft made a pretty surprising announcement. The company revealed that it would bring its Edge browser to iOS and Android, making it easier for existing Edge users (and possible converts) to take their browsing history, bookmarks, and other data with them. Now the beta app is available for download from the Play Store for some countries. But others can download the APK to give it a try. So how is the browser itself? Well, it feels like a mix of desktop Edge and mobile Chrome. The start page has your frequently-visited pages with a search bar, along with stories from MSN below that (which you can turn off). The UI is split into an address bar and Reading List/History/Bookmarks button at the top, and everything else at the bottom. Both bars pull away as you scroll down the page, and re-appear when you swipe up. Familiar Microsoft Edge features like the Hub allow users to organize the web in a way that cuts through the clutter, making it easier to find, view and manage thei...
