<\/p>\n

BackTrack<\/a> is the result of the merging of two Innovative Penetration Testing live Linux distributions namely Whax and Auditor.<\/p>\n

Combining the best features from both distributions, and paying special attention to small details, this is probably the best version of either distributions to ever come out.<\/p>\n

\"BackTrack\"<\/p>\n

Based on SLAX (Slackware), BackTrack provides user modularity. This means the distribution can be easily customised by the user to include personal scripts, additional tools, customised kernels, etc.<\/p>\n

A full list of the tools in BackTrack are available now<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You can download BackTrack now<\/a>.<\/p>\n
