NetHydra 1.1.0 Release, Codenamed “leopard.”

 


NetHydra (formerly HydraPWK GNU/Linux) is a Debian-based distribution designed primarily for penetration testing. It contains a collection of penetration testing tools, including tools for information gathering, scanning, stress testing, exploitation, cracking, reversing engineering and forensics. Formerly known as BlackTrack, the distribution uses a real-time Linux kernel and features the Xfce desktop.


The NetHydra project has published a new update of the Debian-based distribution. The latest version includes a handful of new tools and enables running as the root user by default. 


Another question that might arise is: Why 1.1.0? Why not 2026.3?

To be honest, we had intended to continue releasing NetHydra versions 2026.2 through 2026.4 (running until the end of 2026) however, given the significant overhaul involved—and the high likelihood of package breakage—we have decided to discontinue the previous version. In other words, we do not recommend updating from NetHydra 2026.2 to this version using APT. let’s jump to the Main Update (Root user by default). say hello to root/toor!

Root User By Default

in this update we(I’m) made decision to make root user by default You might consider this a foolish and rash decision in this modern era, and I (we) understand that; however, I (we) created NetHydra to serve my own needs and to suit my specific requirements. Besides, we (I) have never recommended using NetHydra as a daily desktop OS.


Whats New


Desktop changes

in this update we decide to make MATE Desktop as Default Desktop for NetHydra (for SONAR it would still using Xfce), Classic and Technical Feel. You can see the screenshoot bellow!
