# Pentest tools

### Exegol

**Exegol** is installed by default on Monarch. As a powerful and comprehensive pentesting framework, it provides cybersecurity professionals with a **fully featured, isolated, and rapidly deployable** penetration-testing environment.

Monarch includes several custom integrations to streamline its usage:

* You can **create or start an Exegol environment** using the shortcut **`CTRL + ALT + E`**, allowing fast deployment during assessments.
* A default configuration is provided in **`$HOME/.exegol/`**, which includes:
  * **Environment logging enabled by default** — useful for audits and mission reports.
  * A **Kitty terminal configuration** aligned with the system’s own visual style.
  * Additional integrated tools such as **leakscheck**, **inteleaks**, and **leviathan**.

These enhancements make Exegol even more convenient and mission-ready on Monarch.

### Caido & BurpSuite Integration

**Caido** is installed and ready to use from the very first system boot, providing an immediate solution for web application analysis.

For **BurpSuite**, Monarch allows you to choose which edition to deploy.\
You can install either the **Professional** or **Community** version directly through the **Monarch Menu** *(Install > Cyber > Burpsuite)* .\
This ensures that each user can select the version that best fits their workflow and licensing requirements.

### Wordlists

To keep the Monarch ISO lightweight, **wordlists are not included by default**.\
They can be installed at any time through the **Monarch Menu** *(Install > Cyber > Wordlists)*

Once installed, all wordlists are available in **`/usr/share/seclists`.**

This approach ensures fast installation while still providing access to the full SecLists collection when needed.
