With the hard disk size selection, we are done with the basic configurations required to set up the Parrot OS in Virtualbox. The recommended minimum size is 40 Gigabytes. In the next step, select the size of the hard disk. We prefer the dynamic type over fixed size. The selected hard drive type can be a fixed size disk or it can be used as a dynamic drive that can expand itself as per requirement. For the selected Parrot OS version, we need to choose the Virtualbox Disk Image (VDI) type to create the virtual hard disk. There are three hard drive options in the Virtualbox. The next step is the creation of a virtual hard drive for the OS. Since the Parrot OS is a lightweight operating system, it can perform well with 2 GB RAM. Select the memory for the new OS according to your available resources. The machine folder setting is automatically fetched by the Virtualbox installation Wizard. Any name can be given to the new Linux machine. Since the Parrot OS is a Linux operating system based on Debian, select the type and version as shown in the following screenshot. Once the Parrot OS image is downloaded open the new installation wizard from the Virtualbox dashboard.Ī new window appears that requires name, type, and version of the operating system to be installed. Since we are concerned about the security edition, we can download the default Parrot Security MATE ISO version from the following official repository. The Parrot OS has different editions to meet the requirements of the users.

This article is about another Debian based operating system called Parrot OS that has emerged as a strong penetration testing platform. One can follow our “ Kali Linux Pentest Lab” tutorial to get started with Kali Linux as a testbed for penetration testing. The most common and favorable setup is the Kali Linux OS installed in a virtual environment like Oracle Virtualbox and VM Ware. When we talk about learning ethical hacking, the first thing that comes in our mind is the platform where we can practice the penetration testing methodologies.
