    Capture the Flag

    Well, someone else asked about Capture the Flag and ever since Defcon 11 I have been curious as well...

    I'd love to hear from some of the past participants of CtF as to how much of a time investment during the con it was and whether or not they felt it was worthwhile.

    Not really knowing the specifics, I can only imagine that all I'd really spend my time doing is untrojaning the OpenBSD installation and auditing the code of the "portal" (or whatever) application looking for exploitable bugs (or intentional code defects), or perhaps writing some sort of input validating prox(ies) to feed the portal application(s)...

    If that's the case, I'd rather just enjoy CtF as a spectator... CtF seems like it would eat up way too much of my time at the con to really be worth participating in for me...

    As a side note, if I'm not mistaken the format of the CTF is supposed to change this year and run 36hrs straight. If I recall Caezar correctly.

      All the participatory events such as CTF, Wardriving, etc take up too much con time. All enjoyable, but they do make it difficult to see sessions you want.

        WarDriving contest for this year will not take place during presentation times for just that reason. More details later.
        perl -e 'print pack(c5, (41*2), sqrt(7056), (unpack(c,H)-2), oct(115), 10)'

            Then you would probably want to check this site from time to time.
