hackcenter
The hackcenter tent will be the main area for all kinds of activites
at the camp. It is quite impossible to foresee everything that
will be going on here, but a couple of project plans have surfaced
so far
Linux Deathmatch
0. Overview
On the first day of the camp, we want to arrange a Linux Deathmatch
in the Hackcenter. A Linux Deathmatch is a realtime hacking competition.
Four teams of 1-3 players sitting around a pentagon share a network
and try to hack each other. Every team gets a computer and a serial
terminal. They have to run services like SMTP, FTP, WWW and more
complex ones, for which they get scores, and they should also
develop an Intrusion Detection Tool and hack the other players.
1. Deathmatch rules
The rules are under construction. If you want to integrate your
ideas into the deathmatch, please join our mailinglist by writing
a mail to deathmatch-subscribe@lists.ccc.de. We will publish the
rules sometime before the camp. After that, only minor changes
will be made. You will get the exact rules one day before the
deathmatch starts.
2. Player subscriptions
If you want to take part in the deathmatch, please write a mail
to deathmatch@lists.ccc.de.
3. Knowledge you need to survive
You should have a certain measure on knowledge about Linux, programming,
server administration and computer security.
4. The intrusion detection system
The most challenging part of the deathmatch is to write an IDS
that detects several attacks from other computers such as portscans,
IP exploits and hack attempts on high level protocols like the
FTP-mkdir-exploits.
Because writing software is a complex and really creative act,
the teams will get a lot of points for that. At the end of the
deathmatch, we will compare the output of the IDS(s) and give
points for the quality of the tools.
The Firewalling Project
Charly will be setting up a Linux box which will be separated
from the camp network by a firewall which will be either a Sun
or NT. It will run Checkpoint's FW-1 which is said to be great
when configured correctly. The project is about finding out if
that's true :-)
Contact Charly <charly@krzn.de> for more info or have a look at the project web page at http://aix1.krzn.de/camp/.
