Based on Wall Of Sheep idea and "Packet Hacking Village" at the DEF CON conference, a Packet Sniffing Area will be part of this year's event.
12:10
Ongoing Drop-in Workshops @ DesCon Village: Capture The Packet, Capture The Flag & Mesh Networks
12:10 - all night
During the Capture The Packet Workshop we will explain how packets can be captured/sniffed.<br>
<br>
We will:<br>
<b>*</b> warn about major risks in wireless setups, protocols, and surfing from free and unsafe wireless networks.<br>
<b>*</b> Discuss about SSL packets sniffing and cracking (and basics about SSL)<br>
<b>*</b> Explain "Poor man's VPN" setup as the cheapest solution for safe surfing and call for cooperation on HKLBGD project "VPN_KillSwitch"<br>
<br>
Results of the workshop will be presented in a Wall Of Sheep form (as per DEF CON).<br>
<br>
CTF (short for Capture the Flag) is computer security oriented competition in which solving various of challenges ranging from cryptography, steganography, web vulnerabilities, reverse-engineering, network scanning and sniffing, programming and protocol analysis give participants certain score.<br>
<br>
CTF contests are usually designed to serve as an educational exercise to give participants experience in securing a machine, as well as conducting and reacting to the sort of attacks found in the real world.
