The development team behind the BlackArch OS, a penetration testing distribution based on Arch Linux, have announced the release of BlackArch 2016.01.10.

BlackArch 2016.01.10 is the latest and most advanced ISO image of the Linux kernel-based operating system, bringing more than 30 new penetration testing tools, support for Bluetooth, the powerful mpv video player as a replacement for MPlayer, as well as the htop CLI system monitoring utility.

Moreover, the new BlackArch ISO image updates the userland files, replaces the Opera web browser with Midori, adds Ruby 2 support for the beef package, implements some missing security tools that have been contributed by the community, and includes Linux kernel 4.3.3, just like the latest Arch Linux ISO image does.
