 # Kali Linux
-Here are instructions on how to set up your own kali linux machine 
+Here you will find instructions on how to download and setup your very own Kali Linux machine: <br>
+<br>
+If you are unfamiliar with what virtualbox is or what linux is, head on over to the "where to start" directory where I have added some great links to videos and readings on both topics. I'll even give you a link right to it, here: [Let's Learn](/0_Where_To_Start) <br>
+<br>
+
+## Before you get started
+Before you get started I recommend downloading a download manager. It is not necessary but can be helpful. You can download a popular and free one called [Free Download Manager](https://www.freedownloadmanager.org/). I mean, that name could not be better. If you ever google "hey I want a free donwload manger", boom that's the first thing that is going to pop up. If you're not sure why you should get it maybe this article will help. <br>
+[Why You Should use a Download Manager](https://www.hellotech.com/blog/use-download-managers)<br>
+<br>
+
+## Virtualbox
+If you don't already have virtualbox then go ahead and downlaod it. We all use it so if you have any trouble with it don't be afraid to ask for help! <br>
+[VirtualBox](https://www.virtualbox.org/) <br>
+<br>
+
+## Kali Linux
+Once you have Virtualbox downloaded it is time to download Kali Linux. Scroll down to the machine images and click the + button on the virtualbox images tab. Download the OVA file and double-click to open it. It will open virtualbox for you and then click "import" and wait for it to download. <br>
+[Kali Linux](https://www.offensive-security.com/kali-linux-vm-vmware-virtualbox-image-download/#1572305786534-030ce714-cc3b)<br>
+<br>
+
+## After You Import Kali
+The default user has been changed to a standard, unprivileged user. The default username and password are both "kali".<br>
+
+Prevent Kali from going idle:
+- Click on the power button (top right), then "Power Manager Settings", and then Display
+- Change all of them to "never"
+- Go to security, change the same thing, if you want to. 
+
+Lets now change the password:
+- sudo su (su meaning switch user)
+- Type in the password ("kali")
+- passwd root (we are changing the password for the root user, you.)
+- type in your new password
+
+Now it is time to update. You will need to be patient for this step. Open up a terminal and type in the following:
+- apt update && apt -y full-upgrade
+
+<br>
+After all of that you should be set. When powering down the machine do not use the x button in the corner. Doing that is like pulling the plug on your computer when it is on. You are going to go to virtualbox, right click on the machine, then close, then power off.<br>
+<br>
+
+## Windows won't let you power on Kali Linux?
+If you are using windows then you might come across an error in which the machine won't even start. Does it say something like "Failed to open a session for the virtual machine"? If so, try the following and see if it fixes the issue. If it doesn't fix the issue then you can always message in the general slack and ask for help!<br>
+
+What you are going to want to do is first close out your virtual machine manager, in this case it should be virtualbox. Go to Windows Search and type in "features". Click on "Turn Windows features on or off". No you are going to disable the follwoing. If any of them are already disabled then you can skip those:
+- Virtual Machine Platform
+- Windows Defender Application Guard
+- Windows Hypervisor Platform
+- Windows Sandbox
+
+Click ok and restart your computer.

+# Security+ More
+
+If you are interested in getting a Security+ certification, you have come to the right place. Here you fill wind links to resources that will help you get prepared for this challanging but ever so rewarding task. Getting a certification while still in school not only shows that you know what you claim to know but it shows that you are someone that goes above and beyond the normal expectations. You are someone who is excited and eager to learn. <br>
+
+Security+ is not the only certification you can get but it is a great place to start. Not all companies are looking to see if this is something that you have, and I have been told from a company that some companies do not care if you have one, take that with a grain of salt. That same company did say that if you do have a certification then that is something that will definitely impress them. <br>
+
+## Security what?
+Not sure what CompTIA Security+ is? check out this video from, you guessed it, YouTube. This guy is great! If you are interested in other certifications and how to get them, check out some of the other videos on his channel.<br>

+
+## Resources
+For those of you ready to get going and want the good stuff, here you go. Former president Jake Wachs created a public drive full of resources to help you learn more about really anything. There are so many resources here, I reccommend you bookmark it to your bookmarks toolbar! Now how he came about all of these great resources, I do not know. I would honestly rather it be a mystery then finding out that he just googled it. Here you will not only find resources to help you prepare for Security+ exam but with anything that involves cybersecurity. Interested in learning about malware, cryptography, network security, cryptography AND netowrk security, Kali linux, or advanced penetration testing? Then you should definitely check this out. You will also find that one of our current officers, Zachary Weske, has made some contributions as well. So you also have him to thank, and possibly others.<br>

+One of our favorites and our typical go to when it comes to preparing for the Security+ exam is Professor Messer. Here is a link to his youtoube playlist where you fill find 141 videos on getting you ready for the Security+ exam. If you check out his youtube channel you will also find other playlists to other certifications that you might be interested in.<br>

+
+If you instantly fall in love with Professor Messer like most of us have, here is a link to his website where you can buy material to get you ready for the certification you are interested in getting. It's great stuff and worth the buy if you are willing to put in the time and really prepare for the exam. Buying it doesn't gaurentee you will pass, it's up to you to put in the hard work. But hey, I believe in you!<br>
