Deloitte Hackazon contest to start April 30

Deloitte is hosting Hackazon, an online contest that offers hackers a chance to warm up before next month's Positive Hack Days. The contest kicks off on April 30 and will last five days. Winners will receive PHDays invites and souvenirs.

This jeopardy-style capture the flag (CTF) contest will be hosted on the Hackazon platform, which has been specially developed by Deloitte for simulating attacks on real infrastructure. Participants can gain experience in a safe environment while improving their pentesting skills.

Deloitte Hackazon will have tasks of varying difficulty. Participants complete these tasks as quickly as possible, winning points for each task based on its difficulty level. Task completion is tracked in real time. Victory goes to those who complete the tasks most successfully and most quickly!

Interested participants must sign up in advance.

The first five participants able to complete all tasks will each receive a ticket to PHDays 8. Three of them will also receive PHDays souvenirs.

The exact start time, as well as the Hackazon URL, will be posted by the organizers closer to the contest start. Check this space for updates!
