Title: Ubuntu metapackage for "security testng"?
Post by: William Park on May 26, 2016, 10:53:00 PM
Anyone know names of Ubuntu metapackage for "security test/audit" ?

I'm currently downloading Kali (Debian based) and Backbox (Ubuntu based) to be installed on VM later.  But, it would be nicer to "apt-get install XXX".  Unfortunately, I don't know what "XXX" might be.

Are you trying to find security audit tools/apps?

Lynis appears to be one that you can install without adding any special repositories (at least, I think, judging by this website):
