Kali NetHunter is an Android ROM overlay providing a mobile penetration testing platform, combining a custom kernel, a Kali Linux chroot, and an Android app for running security tools and attacks like HID Keyboard, BadUSB, and Evil AP MANA. This original GitHub repository was archived in April 2019; development moved to GitLab.
Use cases
- run penetration testing tools on an android phone
- perform hid keyboard attacks from a mobile device
- set up a portable kali linux environment on android
- launch badusb attacks from a phone
- create an evil access point with a mobile device
When to choose
- you need a mobile penetration testing platform on a supported nexus or oneplus device
- you want kali linux tooling combined with android-based attack capabilities
When to avoid
- you need current device support or updates - use the active GitLab kali-nethunter-project instead
- your device is not on the supported hardware list
- you want a maintained project - this repo is archived and read-only
