A customised build of Kali Linux, created by and for CyberSoc, for use at our sessions.
- KDE Plasma is the default desktop environment.
- SDDM is the default display manager.
- A customised zshrc, loosely based on the one from Sciencentistguy's dotfiles
- Custom CyberSoc-branded wallpaper.
- Some added tools:
We provide releases occasionally, with pre-built .isos available for download. We build these with the kali-linux-everything metapackage, so they are very large (over 10GiB). To use this:
- Download the
.isofile from the Google Drive link in the tagged release. - Write it to a USB stick with your preferred method. On macOS or Linux, we recommend using the
ddutility, and on Windows, we recommend Rufus.
If you want a more recent build than the most recent release, or you want to customise the build (to, for example, reduce the final size of the image), you can build it yourself from this repo.
To reduce the size of the final image, change the metapackage used as a base. This is done by editing the file ./kali-config/variant-cybersoc/package-lists/kali.list.chroot and changing kali-linux-everything to a different metapackage.
- If your system has
dpkg:- Clone the kali-live-build-config repository.
- Clone this repository into the
kali-configdirectory within the cloned repository. - Run
./build.sh --debug --variant cybersoc
- If your system does not have
dpkg, but is Linux-based:- Follow the instructions within live-build-docker
- The completed image will be placed in
images/ - If your system is not based on Linux:
- Unfortunately, we cannot provide build instructions for you. The easiest way to build this is probably from inside a Kali Linux VM.

Our configuration is based on Kali Linux's live-build-config, which is in turn based on Debian's live build.
