Went to Cyber Dawn yesterday; a 2-day red v blue computer hacking competition outside of DC. I didn't compete because I signed up too late for a ticket, but I went as a spectator and to scout out putting a team together next year. There was a big red cell this year; about 30 professional hackers. There were 4 universities there along with 2 military academies (West Point and Air Force Academy). George Mason U was there with a big team, although they looked pretty rough. University of Maryland Baltimore County campus was there too, although they only had 2 guys trying to defend their network. Some corporations also sent teams. AOL, ITT, and BAE were both there. When I left yesterday, Air Force was in the lead with Westpoint in second place and BAE in third. No huge surprises there.
I'm probably going to go back later today to watch things wrap up and see if I can get some access to the red cell room. They've been pretty protective about what goes on back there, but I'm guessing it's mostly Metasploit, Nessus, some random open source toolsets and malware along with a few copies of Core Impact.
