HydraPWK Features
RT kernel – By default, hydrapwk uses the RT kernel (real-time) <VERSION_KERNEL>-xhydrapwk-rt1-antihacker-<ARCH> and this is because it focuses on real-time hardware hacking. Therefore, it needs low latency to communicate with the target.
Plug and Play – hydrapwk is self-contained and has the linux kernel name xhydrapwk-rt1-antihacker or <VERSION_KERNEL>-xhydrapwk-rt1-antihacker-<ARCH>, not only RT by default, but also a built-in kernel module, so with this you don't need to load the module manually since it will be loaded automatically at boot.
Open-source – the software is open source, all packages (bundles/tools) are licensed under DFSG, GPLv2+, GPLv3, GPLv2, Apache license.
Device Support – Currently, developers are adapting hydrapwk to embedded devices like TvBox and Mobile.
HydraPWK is not recommended for everyday use, it is not a regular desktop. In other words, HydraPWK is not for everyone.

Although the press releases will range from very select to rare, I said I'd pass...because sometimes the editors hide.
