BlackArch ist eine junge Linux-Distribution, die ihren Schwerpunkt auf Penetration legt. BlackArch ist eine spezialisierte Version von Arch Linux und dessen Derivat. Es wird verwendet, um Systeme zu härten und Sicherheitslücken zu reduzieren. BlackArch Linux lässt sich auf eine Arch Linux-Installation aufbauen und erweitern, sodass keine komplett neue Installation notwendig ist.
