If you're doing security on the red team, either the tools are linux based, or you've got to work to get the Linux tools working in a Windows environment or run Linux in a VM.
You are so FOS. Dude, a n00b will never have a better chance at a career in Linux than Microsoft. It's really bad advise to give people who just want to enter the field.
