About BlackArch Linux

BlackArch is an Arch Linux expansion carrying more than 2,800 security tools, usable as a standalone live distribution or by adding its repository to an existing Arch install so tools can be pulled in individually.

Strengths

  • The largest packaged security tool collection of any distribution
  • Can be added to an existing Arch system instead of replacing it

Limitations

  • Assumes Arch knowledge; there is no hand-holding
  • Tool quality varies and many packages are unmaintained upstream
