"Hacking" Competition Now Open to All Interested

Perhaps you are already aware, but the EasyCTF (Capture the Flag) hacking competition is started yesterday and runs through 11/10.  Here is a link: https://www.easyctf.com

As described by them "EasyCTF is a online hacking/cybersecurity contest targeted at middle and high school students. Like many similar CTF competitions, participants will have to crack, decompile, decrypt, etc. through many defenses in order to find a secret message, known as the "flag". The challenges presented are designed with the intent of being hacked, making it an excellent and legal way for students to get some great hands-on experience."

This is a great opportunity for you to add some real-time excitement to your CS class, no matter what level of proficiency your students are at.  I know that my students get real kick out of the competition, and that yours probably will as well.


Come join the fun!
