Parrot Security OS 3.3 Released

In our lists of the most popular and best operating systems for ethical hacking purposes, Parrot Security OS is often listed as the best alternative to the well known Kali Linux. Back in October, we witnessed a big release of this OS, i.e., Parrot Security 3.2 CyberSloop.

As a Christmas gift to ethical hackers, Frozenbox Network has unveiled a minor release in the form of Parrot Security 3.3, which is “just a working snapshot of the bigger work.”

“We are sorry for all the silence behind our development process of these days, but we were secretly working on 2 main projects,” the announcement says.

As expected, this Debian GNU/Linux 9 Stretch-based release fixes many small bugs and introduces new updates. The blog post also mentions the upcoming Parrot 3.4 release that’s supposed to be a bigger release.

What is Parrot




Parrot is a GNU/Linux distribution based on Debian and focused on Penetration Testing, Digital Forensics, Programming and Privacy protection.

What Version to choose




Parrot comes in a lot of shapes and sizes in order to fit in all the possible hardware and users needs.






Depending on what hardware configuration and scope you have, consider these options:





 Parrot 3.x Full Edition (x86 and x86_64) :








As the name suggests, this is the full edition. After the installation you have a complete out of the box pentesting workstation loaded with a big variety of tools ready to use. Highly reccomended for Desktops and Laptops with at least 4GB of RAM, in order to have a smooth experience while multitasking.


Parrot 3.x Lite Edition (x86 and x86_64) :




This version of Parrot is aimed for a lightweight installation which provides the essential tools to start working. It relays on the same repositories as the Full Edition, letting you choose most of the programs you want to install later on. Reccomended for those users who are familiar with Pentesting Distros and need to create a minimal one.


Parrot 3.x Cloud Edition (x86 and x86_64) :




Forget all you know about pentesting circumstances, carrying a laptop everywhere you go to accomplish your job is not mandatory anymore. You can now have a remote VPS loaded with ParrotOS ready to perform all sort of tasks from an embedded terminal, with discretion. This edition does not provide a GUI out of the box, but it's available in the repositories if needed. There are two options: Download the iso and installing it on your own machine; or Rent a ready to use VPS with Parrot Cloud installed. More about specs and price list here.


Parrot 3.x Embedded and IoT Edition (ARM) :




A lightwieght Parrot release for embedded systems, aimed for simplicity and portability. Supported hardware brands are Raspberry Pi and Cubieboard.


Parrot 3.x Libre Edition aka Iris Gnu/Linux (x86 and x86_64):




A fully Free Software and Opensource project born from Parrot Security os, aimed for people who put privacy and freedom of computing above everithing else.


Parrot LXDE Edition (x86):




As the name suggests, this particular version was born for all those people who want a fully working Parrot enviornment running on old hardware. No eccesive graphics power required, reccomended for really old computers like Dell Latitude (x86 arch, 256Mb RAM).


Parrot 3.x Studio Edition (x86_64) :




Designed for students, producers, video editing and all related professional multi-media creation. This edition's goals are to provide a reliable workstation for a multi purpose computing.


Parrot Netinstall (x86 and x86_64) :


A Parrot Security os netinstaller has been created for all of you who don't have enough space on their usb drives to write the full or light ISO. A graphical installer is available as well. Fast download garanteed since Frozenbox has a lot of people hosting mirros all over the globe.




Parrot Security OS 3.3 changelog:

There are hundreds of Windows applications that claim they can hack WPA , don’t get them! They’re just scams, used by professional hackers, to lure newbie or wannabe hackers into getting hacked themselves. Warning..!! WIFI hacking is illegal. “This tutorial is only for educational purposes. I am not responsible for any consequences.” Hack WIFI WPS PIN using reaver method. So lets Start Cracking Step 1:  Open Terminal and Find out the name of your wireless adapter. , type ifconfig on a terminal. See the result. (here my wireless adapter is ‘wlan0’).  Step 2:  Enable Monitor mode. Now, we use a tool called airmon-ng to create a virtual interface called mon. Just type. airmon-ng start wlan0 Step 3:  Type the following commands on terminal. airmon-ng check kill Step 4 :   To find WPS networks ,we'll

World’s Fastest Camera Takes 5 Trillion Photos Per Second, Can Pause Moving Light

Image
High-speed cameras taking 100,000 pictures in one second are enough to fascinate us. But what about a camera that can film at a rate of 5 trillion images per second. It’s created by the researchers Elias Kristensson and Andreas Ehn at the Lund University in Sweden. The camera can make light slow enough that it could be analyzed by humans. In other words, it can be used to record events happening in the 0.2 trillionths of a second. In 2011, a similar camera device was created by the MIT Media Lab. But it was slower and capable of capturing 1 trillion images per second. The researchers demonstrated the camera by filming photons of light traveling a distance equivalent to the thickness of a paper. The trillion camera works in a different way in comparison to the normal high-speed cameras.
