The latest version of the popular Kali Linux is available for Download. Several changes, most notably the new work environment. The development team listened to thousands of Kali users and tried to lighten the new version 2019.4 with Xfce. Another feature we like is Kali Undercover which enables you to run the operating system on a “fake” Windows environment when you want to avoid getting noticed into your workplace.
At the same time we should not forget NetHunter Kex, the shell that allows you to run a full Kali desktop to your mobile.
