I and a large portion of our local defcon group had a wonderful discussion on mplsctfgames.org. A new capture the flag\computer security event site that I've begun. With any luck and a lot of work, we hope to accomplish all of the following:
- Monthly DC612 Challenges with prizes to be determined
- Bi\weekly tutorials on, or help with selected challenges
- Conspire with Security B-Sides to create a challenge or event for the January meet.
- Corporate sponsorship, shared resources, or of course beer and pizza money!
In addition I'd like to mention a forum created by a friend and past co-worker, that's a bit more disclosure and vulnerability discovery based. http://forum.Cipherflux.net/ Still in it's infancy, there is already some good talent posting recent news, tool reviews, and plenty of interesting stuff. While it could cause some friendly competition, I would encourage people to check it out and possibly use it as a side line to my own capture the flag events.
On a final note, I believe I owe some python scripts related to Windows memory analysis... Their done and still coming, maybe a week or two this time :)
