PentestBox is not like other Penetration Testing Distributions which runs on virtual machines.
It is created because more than 50% of penetration testing distributions users uses windows. Source:- https://pentestbox.com/download_stats.txt
So it provides an efficient platform for Penetration Testing on windows.
Features
- All the dependencies required by tools are inside PentestBox, so you can even run PentestBox on freshly installed windows without any hassle.
- PentestBox directly runs on host machine instead of virtual machines, so performance is obvious.
- It is a commandline utility which is all what you want's.
- PentestBox is entirely portbale, so now you can carry your own Penetration Testing Environment on a USB stick. It will take care of dependencies required to run tools which are inside it.
- It only need's 20 MB for launching compared to atleast 2GB of RAM need for running virtual machine distributions.
- Plus it only need's around 2GB disk space comapred to atleast 10GB in virtual machines.
