Which Is The Better Platform For Metasploit, Linux Or Windows? |
|
Answer» The choice of platform is more or LESS personal, since the framework WORKS almost the same on both operating systems. HOWEVER, the MAJORITY of Metasploit downloads for its earlier versions were for the Windows platform. For version 3, Windows is only PARTIALLY supported. My personal choice is Linux, since some of the bleeding-edge features such as database support and wireless exploits first came out for Linux, and then for Windows.
