We invited the entire conference to hack the bank - Here is what we learned by doing it.

Elevator Pitch

DNB Bank had a conference stand at NDC Oslo 2019. I built and presented a capture-the-flag hacking themed competition. This wasn’t your average conference raffle - we set up real servers with real-world vulnerabilities, challenged the contestants with breaking in!

Description

DNB Bank had a conference stand at NDC Oslo 2019. I built and presented a capture-the-flag hacking themed competition. This wasn’t your average conference raffle - we set up real servers with real-world vulnerabilities, challenged the contestants with breaking ciphertexts, hacking trivia, breaking into real running servers using real-world exploits, and of course coding challenges. So come join me, and I’ll take you through how I built it, why we did it, and share what we learned by doing it.

I will also show the most difficult hacks of the competition live on stage :) 3 live demos of real hacking of a bank’s resources - what could go wrong?
