Shmoocon Hack or Halo – Winner!

Posted on April 1st, 2007 in Security by LogicX

I competed in the Hack or Halo competition this past week at Shmoocon 2007.

There were about 40 people competing, in two sessions of 20. I completed 9 of the 22 goals, and was declared the winner during the closing ceremony Sunday afternoon. I received an Xbox 360!

I’d have to say that the Friday night practice session was very helpful. I had my work pentesting laptop along with me for the weekend, preloaded with all my tools, the only one I discovered to be lacking were tools to decode stegnography, so I quickly got steghide prior to Saturday Night’s competition.
