I'm not sure of what you mean by "Exploitation System", but LINUX has its roots in UNIX. UNIX was developed in the late 1960s by engineers at Bell Labs. First draft was written in assembly, but was then re-written in C which made it portable to different computing hardware. It has branched into different disciplines being further developed by the team at ATT as well as other institutions. Several students graduating from Berkley University used writing additional commands for the UNIX operating system as final projects to make or boost their grades. It was called BSD. This led to a kind of mish-MASH command structure where the command line switches were given arbitrary ASCII codes that made sense to the programmer alone. Using early UNIX based operating systems was truly an exercise in memory.

Several companies have made their own versions of UNIX, each of which has standardized the commands and command switch structure to their own flavor. Some wrote a GUI layer to allow mouse driven user input.

Having UNIX or LINUX based operating systems in circulation is a good thing. It's a little late coming. It would have had a far greater effect on the computing community today if a graphic based version were available around same time Windows became a reality. If it had, the using community would have tried both, back when graphic driven operating systems were introduced. This could have only made the products better in quality. Competition drives ingenuity, and if Microsoft and Intel would have had level competition from the beginning, the hardware in front of you, and operating systems driving them, would have been at an entirely different level today.

What is the difference between unix operating system and Linux operating system?

Linux is a Unix-like system. This means that it is inspired or influenced by Unix in some shape or form (Linux started off from Minix), but it is not directly derived from Unix. However, BSD is based on Unix, and macOS is indirectly Unix-based because of its mixed heritage with BSD.
