How to add official repositories in Kali Linux 2.0

If you installed the OS offline, you will need to update the repository list to get future updates.
Let's keep this short.
Open sources.list file with any text editor :

 :~# nano /etc/apt/sources.list

Now replace the text in the file with this:

## Regular reppositories

deb http://http.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib
deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security sana/updates main contrib non-free

## Source reporitories

deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali sana main non-free contrib
deb-src http://security.kali.org/kali-security sana/updates main contrib non-free




I found the above links here:
http://docs.kali.org/general-use/kali-linux-sources-list-repositories

^ This is the official site. Visit the link for more details.

Now the file should look like this image:




Now run:

:~# apt-get update



WARNING: These 4 links are enough for normal updates and installing packages. Add other repositories only if it's really important.

How To Create Strong Password

My last post taught you about making your PC say something. This post is gonna teach you creating strong passwords. Password is a secret word or phrase that must be used to gain admission to something... It allows you gain access to a computer, interface or a system. As pentesting is one of my interests, it's my daily work to crack passwords and make my system more secure. We, network security administrators know the methods to crack weak passwords easily and trust me, even a noob or script kiddie can crack them just by using some tools. A lot of noobs try social engineering too to gain access to your important stuff. If you have a strong password, it's difficult for people to guess it and hence, your account remains safe and secure.
