Matriux Linux: The Hackers' Operating System —
An alternative to Kali Linux
Usually when we talk about Linux distributions that are “dedicated” to ethical hacking and pen testing, Kali Linux and Parrot Security OS come to mind first on the list. However, today, in this article, we will get to know an alternative, Matriux — a Debian-based Linux operating system designed for security enthusiasts.
This operating system comes with more than 300 open source tools specifically for penetration testing and hacking. It is designed based on the needs of security professionals, but can also be used for everyday tasks by ordinary users.

Designed by Manu Zacharia, an Indian infosec professional, Matriux is the first Asian OS for hacking and penetration testing.
In addition to being quick and easy to install, this lightweight and open source Linux distribution is also designed to run from a USB stick or CD/DVD. With Matriux, you can turn any system into a powerful hacking station in no time with the help of this alternative solution.
If we were to list the most important hacking tools of Matriux, we would certainly create a fairly long list, with the most notable being Wireshark, Angry IP Scanner, Vidalia, Lime, HTTrack, Aircrack-ng, TrueCrypt, EtherApe, Nmap, and Zenmap. These, and many more, are divided into sections with a broader classification of tools into Reconnaissance, Scanning, Attack Tools, Frameworks, Radio (Wireless), Digital Forensics, Debuggers, Tracers, Fuzzers.
