The use of web browsers is something frequent since from them we access thousands of websites and personal platforms, but you should understand that all this has a certain security risk since many browsers integrate functions that take personal data and then be sold to third parties. For commercial purposes..
There are two browsers, one more popular than the other, which will be of great help in the Kali Linux operating system (a system specially designed for security purposes) and are Google Chrome and Tor's security (not the god of thunder). We all know what Google Chrome offers us in terms of design, compatibility and add-ons, but we have heard little from Tor, well, that's what TechnoWikis is here for, to give you a light on this.
What is Tor
Tor is a group of strategically located servers in order to provide users who use it with two key bulwarks on Internet security issues:
Tor feature
The operation of Tor is based on a network that connects through different virtual tunnels thus avoiding direct connection, this will simply prevent third parties from taking our browsing practices and using them improperly.
At this point we must clarify that you must be governed by the laws of the site where you are, this because Tor can access blocked content in violation of local laws, TechnoWikis tells you “avoid legal problems†by being responsible with your navigation..
Tor is responsible for distributing transactions on different websites, preventing all of this redirection to our IP (100% privacy) and all this thanks to multiple encrypted connections through relays arranged in the Internet network.
Knowing these advantages of both Tor and Google Chrome, we will see how to install these two browsers in Kali Linux 2020.1 and thus have comprehensive navigation options..

Google Chrome
Step 2
There we click on the "Download Chrome" button and the following will be displayed. There we activate the “.deb 64-bit†box because Kali Linux is based on Debian.
Step 3
The file can be downloaded or executed automatically in Kali. For this case we select “Save File†to save it.
Step 4
Once downloaded, we validate in the Downloads folder that the file is:
Step 5
After this, we will go to the terminal in Kali Linux 2020.1 and using the “cd†command we access Downloads and with “ls†we validate the package name:
Step 6
We proceed to update the system packages by running:
sudo apt-get update
Step 7
Then we will execute the following to run the file we have downloaded:
sudo dpkg -i “package name .debâ€
Step 8
Theoretically Google Chrome has been installed, but we can run the following to be completely sure of this:
sudo apt-get install -f
Step 9
After this we can access Google Chrome from the search engine in Kali Linux:
Step 10
We access and see Google Chrome in action:
Step 11
After this, we must access the Google editor with the following command:
sudo nano / opt / google / chrome / google-chrome
Step 12
There we will go to the end of the editor and locate the exec line -a "$ 0" "$ HERE / chrome" "$ 0":
Step 13
Next to it we will add the following:
add --user-data-dir --no-sandbox
Step 14
We save the changes using the following key combination:
+ O Ctrl + O
We leave the editor using:
+ X Ctrl + X
So we are ready to use Google Chrome in Kali Linux 2020.1.
2. How to install Tor on Kali Linux 2020.1 by commands
Tor can be installed both graphically and graphically, first, we will see the installation by commands.
Step 1
To do this we access the terminal and there we execute the following:
sudo apt-get update
Step 2
After this we can execute the following for a comprehensive Kali update:
sudo apt dist-upgrade -y
Step 3
To install the Tor browser by commands we will execute the following:
sudo apt-get install tor
Step 4
Enter the letter S to confirm the download and installation of Tor.
