Before starting

Therefore you will need to open up chrome settings which can be accessed by going to chrome://settings/downloads (copy and paste link) and making sure 'Ask where to save each file before downloading is selected' is enabled.

Installing Kali

Note: If you already have a Kali VM setup in VirtualBox, you can skip to step 6. It needs to be in VirtualBox.

Click here to visit the Kali download page for Virtual Images. These are pre-built images to save you time installing from the vanilla ISO.
Click the link under VirtualBox (not Vmware or other) to download, and save to your Desktop.
Once it's downloaded, right click on the 7z file and choose 7zip -> Extract to kali-linux..../
Now you can delete the 7z file. Make sure to empty recycle bin. You only have so much space on the Uni computers, so keep it clean.
Open the folder you extracted and you will see 2 files. Double click on the smallest file (the .vbox file), it will then open in VirtualBox and Kali will show in here.
Before we boot Kali, you will need to change the networking settings, you should add another network adapter to the Kali VM and choose 'Host only', then choose the 'host only adapter' from the available options.

Now click Start on the virtual machine
Login with kali/kali

Vm1 setup

Download vm1 from here
Extract the zip file
As before make sure once extracted to delete and empty recycle bin - to save space.
There are two files, you need to double click on the smaller file (.vbox) which will open the VM in VirtualBox
Once open, go into the settings for the new VM and make sure that host-only is selected.
Power on the VM and it will get to a login screen.
There is no password provided to you. Your task is to figure out a way into the VM. Think like a hacker, perform nmap, and see if you can hack in, or brute force the login.
