    UK member's welcome to open season...

    Apparently NGS have tested schools and found the most simple vulnerabilities that could be exploited by even an amateur 'hacker'

    It's worth a read and pretty much sum's up definitely what the school around here are like.

    Always comes down to money in the end. They'd rather sacrifice their security than properly train people and get auditors in.

    Heard about it on cybersec challenge's facebook, can't wait till that start their challenges this year.

    Blue box saying participate now I think, click the link and it'll take you to their tutorial that should prepare you for it. Pretty basic stuff by the looks of it. Just going through the bits I need refreshes on. Should also help refreshing as I've got networking coming up on my course.
