As I was perusing the Net this evening I discovered SmashTheStack was hosting a team-based CTF-style WarGame. Teams are given a remote box and need to secure it, but are required to keep at least 3 services at all times. Teams are given 24 hours to secure their boxes. After the grace period each team will attack the other teams’ boxes while defending their own. The goal is to take control of the other teams’ boxes and lock them out. Last man standing wins.

Personally, this sounds like a blast but I have no team. So who wants to hack with me?

I’m looking for up to four people willing to join me in this endeavor. I’m looking for people who have some experience in similar types of events. I will admit that I still have a lot to learn, though I do have some experience. Specifically, I have obtained my OSCP (Offensive Security Certified Professional) from Offensive Security. I also went to the Louisville Metro Infosec in 2009 and got 3rd place in their CTF.  I’ve been working in IT for over a decade now and currently work as a sysadmin for a small/medium size organization (~50 users).  I’m also going to school and taking other steps to focus my IT career more on InfoSec.

If this sounds like fun and you want to get to know some new people comment to this post and let me know you’re interested and what kind of experience you may have.  I’m looking for people with some experience and are just looking to have some fun.  Details of the event can be found here. Teams will be announced a week before the event, so we would need to form our team by the end of this week and get our application in.
So, wanna hack with me?
