ramblings of a {sys,net}admin…

A week or so ago I came across an article entitled “A Student-Hacker Showdown at the Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition”. I heard never heard of this particular event before, but it definitely sounds cool. I would love to get a team together at the school where I work and try to compete in this next time around. I’d also love to hear from anyone who’s been involved in it in any fashion. For those who don’t know, I work at a post-secondary institution in Bloomington, Indiana, and do various sysadmin/netadmin/infosec chores there. I’ve thought about trying to organize some sort of “capture the flag” game, but it’s never moved past the “hey, that’s a cool idea” phase in my head. =)
