Alpine security

Note: This is work in progress. Not all packages are available at the moment.

Alpine Security provides a toolset to work on security auditing, forensics, system rescue, and teaching security testing methodologies. With the simple python-based config-builder script this page can be transformed into a plaintext file for the usage with alpine-iso.
