REALI7Y OVERRUN
Hybrid Contest
Friday and Saturday: 10:00 - 18:00 , Sunday 10:00 - 13:00
This is going to be an interactive live game that is driven by a near future storyline in which deepfakes and forgeries are so difficult to detect that bad actors and foreign governments are fully engaged in a war over people's minds. At the same time, the world is sitting on the brink of the so-called "singularity," as AI advancements have completely blurred the line between artificial and natural cognition, and the Turing test has been rendered decisively moot.
Teams will join the game and follow the storyline to clues that will give them hints about who they can trust and who they can't. The clues will follow the pattern of deepfakes and forgeries, asking players to figure out what's real and what's not, focusing on hacker and defcon focus areas such as authentication, trust, social engineering, hardware and software manipulation and more. They will be given a rich story that will lead them to research the underlying issues in trust and anonymous trust systems. They will also encounter challenges and tutorials on video and image validation and cryptographically safe messaging.
