Kali + Additional Tools + Vulnerable Applications in Docker containers...
A vulnerable VM that you will use to perform a full assessment (from reconnassaince to full compromise)
Another vulnerable VM that you will use to perform a full assessment (from reconnassaince to full compromise)
This video explains how to setup the virtual machines in your system using Virtual Box.
The diagram below shows the lab architecture with WebSploit Full version, Raven, and VTCSEC. The VMs were created in Virtual Box. It is highly recommended that you use Virtual Box. However, if you are familiar with different virtualization platforms, you should be able to run the VMs in VMWare Workstation Pro (Windows), VMWare Fusion (Mac), or vSphere Hypervisor (free ESXi server).
You should create a VM-only network to deploy your vulnerable VMs and perform several of the attacks using WebSploit (Kali Linux), as shown in the video above. You can configure a separate network interface in your WebSploit VM to connect to the rest of your network and subsequently the Internet. Preferably, that interface should be in NAT mode.
