Revision as of 23:05, 16 February 2010 by imported>Cov
The Cyber Security Competition is a hacking competition hosted by the Linux and Unix Users Group.
Spring 2010 Information
The Linux and Unix Users Group at Virginia Tech will host a computer and network (in)security competition as part of the Student Engineers' Council's E-Week. Participants should bring a computer with the necessary tools installed, power cord and Ethernet cable. Boxen to pwn will be provided. Calendar entry.
Format
The structure and scoring of the event is still under development, but we have the following goals:
- Everyone should be able to make some progress and make it onto the score board
- Points can be scored for:
- Pwning boxen
- Keeping your own vulnerable server up
Messing with others' vulnerable servers, patching the existing vulnerable system, and reverse-engineering and re-implementing the not-too-complicated server will all be options.
The servers will be virtual machine images.
