So here's the spiel. The competition will be based on game like scenario where almost every bit of intelligence counts. A max occupancy will be either 8 individuals or 8 teams. That's up for those who want to participate to decide.
The competition will provide you with everything needed other then the computer to complete your tasks of course.
Alright, down to the goodies, this is just a test phase to see what you the community think, but I believe it should take off nicely.
You, an operative from a Spy agency, is given a task to go work another company; lets say Microsoft. The spy agency has a lead that there is soemthing being developed behind the scenes and would liek to know about it. Since we gave Microsoft for an example lets say, Windows XP Secured Edition. Your task is to get a job at the victim corporation and steal the schematics for such and such project.
To start off you will be given an analog phone which will connect to an IVR to provide details on the victim company. You will also be given a office like situation inside of the company. For example, user logins to the intranet which will allow you to use your VoIP phone (we're providing cisco 7940's), and other specific things a typical office will have. We'll also give you a network drop for your laptop. Teams wil have to provide a switch / hub of some sort to split the connection among teammates.
Our hope is to create a live like scenario which will throw almost all aspects of security and intelligence at you.
From here, we'll simulate a majority of the traffic going on. There will be simulated calls which will provide details of who has the project's files, what's being developed, and other critical aspects. It's your job to record these calls and use the information to hack the computer holding the schematics for the project. Once you obtain these files your the winner.
Other then calls, there will be such aspects as emails and instant messages. As most companies have now-a-days.
Scoring will consist of how much information you obtain. If you can only get a specific amount of information and are unable to continue, then you will be given a certain amount of points. So far prizes are being calculated. It will be hardware with value between 200-400$. If lucky enough we may let you walk with the 7940 :-).
That's basically the jist of what we're aiming at. It'll require both voice and data knowledge to compete. But overall I believe it's a good chance for those phreakers to get their hands wet. Depending on the feedback given, I'll decide whether or not to post an official rules set / scenario of game play.
