in this lecture I will explain about how 1
to download and install VirtualBox. So 2
the first step in creating our lab 3
environment is by installing a 4
virtualization software such as any 5
VMware flavor or Oracle VirtualBox which 6
I have chosen because it's free and easy 7
to use. VirtualBox will be used to create 8
virtual machines or VMs in the lab 9
environment including the security onion 10
VM, the Kali Linux VM, and the Metasploitable 11
VM. So first we will download 12
VirtualBox by going to this link 13
shown here, which you can find in 14
addition to all other links for 15
downloading the required software for 16
this course at the first lecture. Now I 17
will start downloading VirtualBox for 18
Windows hosts and click save file. We see 19
that the downloading is 20
starting now, so I will stop recording 21
and continue after the download is 22
complete. And we see now that the 23
download is completed. So now I will 24
launch the setup for VirtualBox and 25
click on next, and then also on next and 26
I will leave this option selected, and 27
click on next and it gives us a warning 28
about network interfaces, that it will 29
reset our network connections, and there 30
is no problem with that. 31
So I will click on yes, and then install, 32
and we see that the installation process 33
is now in progress and if it is the first 34
time you are installing VirtualBox you 35
might see messages about trusting 36
software from Oracle, and you should 37
click on yes for these messages. 38
so it is progressing now in the 39
installation process. 40
And we see that the installation is now 41
completed. 42
So I will click on finish to start 43
VirtualBox. We see now that we have 44
installed VirtualBox successfully, and in 45
the next lecture we will start 46
installing and configuring the Security 47
Onion VM.
