1GETTING STARTED WITH THE BASICS
By our very nature, hackers are doers. We want to touch and play with things. We also want to create and, sometimes, break things. Few of us want to read long tomes of information technology theory before we can do what we love most: hacking. With that in mind, this chapter is designed to give you some fundamental skills to get you up and running in Kali . . . now!
