Is ParrotOS completely free?
Yes, and it is also open source. Parrot is derived from Debian and inherits this characteristic as well. Moreover, all the projects maintained by the Parrot team are released under the GPL license.
Can I try ParrotOS without installing it?
Yes! Before installation, you can try the system and then decide whether to install it or use it in live mode. In live mode, it’s also possible to create a persistent partition to keep your data.
How often is ParrotOS updated?
Parrot’s repositories periodically synchronize with Debian’s stable branch, and for tools or other updates that require more urgency, we take care of importing and applying the updates ourselves. This ensures that the system remains reliable and up to date.
What's the difference between Security and Home editions?
The Security edition includes the parrot-tools-full metapackage, which contains all the security tools, while the Home edition only includes our configurations for everyday use.
Where can I verify my downloads?
For each release, we create a file containing the hashes generated right after the build of each image is completed. In addition, the entire repository is signed with our GPG key, which is periodically updated.
