The Veil development team is happy to announce that as of today, Veil has been added to Kali’s repositories!  Veil will always be available via github, but now we can also simply use apt to install Veil within Kali.

In order to install Veil with apt, simply run the following two commands:

apt-get update

apt-get install veil

You should see something similar to the following:

After installing Veil, navigate to the setup directory (as shown above it is as /usr/share/veil/setup) and run the setup script like you normally would. The script just ensures that all Veil specific dependencies are installed and sets up up a few variables that Veil uses during normal use.

After this, simply typing veil will start Veil for your use within Kali!  We’re really happy and humbled to have Veil added into Kali, and hope to continue ensuring Veil not only helps us, but can help the security industry.

As usual, if you have any questions, bugs, requests, comments, etc. please don’t hesitate to get in contact with us on Twitter, Github, or via e-mail.

Thanks, and don’t get caught!
