By booting from a portable storage medium, users of Kali Linux can try the operating system out without installing it. This capability is helpful for quickly evaluating a computer's security without changing its current operating system. As soon as the machine is turned down or restarted, any modifications performed during the live session are lost.
Forensics mode
By mounting drives in read-only mode and rerouting system logs to volatile memory, Kali Linux's "forensics mode" is a secure environment for conducting digital forensics investigations that prevents any changes to the material being examined. Forensic tools like Sleuth Kit, Autopsy, and Volatility are already installed in this mode to preserve the objectivity of the inquiry.
