HackThisSite.org News: BKP CTF 2016 -- RECAP

Well it was a very long and exciting weekend. There was little sleep and a lot of banging of heads on keyboards. The HackThisSite team finished 181st out of 765 teams.

BostonKeyParty was by no means an easy CTF. There was a strict no hint policy in place and the challenges were all home-brew designed to prevent automated tools for 'cheese' completions. It truly lived up to the reputation and was justly deserving of being a DEFCON pre-qualifier.

Throughout the competition we had several members come in to help and to show support for the team. A special shout out goes to:

LiquidLemon, sandman, NETWORKsecurity, Ayr3s, Kage, missingRemote, rik, Stoneman, Deshi, Zylopfa, Mteor, Pure_Cadence, mShred, Ninjex, e3cb, weekend, limdis

Keep your eyes open for the next CTF announcement! We will be competing in several events throughout the year of varying difficulty. If you have never participated in a CTF before and are interested, take the time now to look over old write-ups and hone your skills. The next event will be announced soon!
