Noctua

A source-readable, modular red teaming stack built on Debian 12 and Ansible.
(Eventually migrating to Void Linux...)

Noctua is designed as a rock-solid base for surgical offensive operations.

Tools are built from source wherever possible, and provisioning is done cleanly via Ansible.

Ongoing work in progress — but already operational.

---

🎯 Goals

• Idempotent provisioning via Ansible
• Minimal base install — everything is opt-in
• Source-first tooling (wherever possible)
• Headless first

---

🧱 Deployment Models

Noctua can be deployed in an infite set of ways, but here's some examples:

• Local monolith — like a GUI Kali Linux

• Headless node

  • fully remote
  • no GUI tooling
  • RDP/VNC

• Recon node

  • Periodically scan and store stuff

• C2 server node

---

🔐 OPSEC & Security Philosophy

• Bloat = attack surface — nothing is installed without intent
• All tooling is opt-in and source-visible
• Most tools are built from source to enable auditing
• That said — current priority is OSCP completion, so OPSEC is not locked down yet

---

🛠️ Planned Features

• GitLab + artifact repository
• Basic EDR/defensive implements
