    After missing the announcement for the second part of the Network Forensics Puzzle (yes, I’m subscribed the feed now!)

    Given that the deadline passed, I’ll publish my solution to the Scooby Doo Ethical hacker challenge. In related news (via SANS): the November challenge from packetlife.

    A new challenge is in full swing: Scooby Doo and the Crypto Caper. The solutions for the previous one will be shortly announced. It should be very interesting because it contained some hardcore Linux hacking which is always interesting.
