National Application Security Hackathon 2019

This year’s challenge utilises an intentionally vulnerable applications, InstaFriends – a social media website. The challenge comprises a real website with simulated traffic, technologies and vulnerabilities that represent actual application behaviours.

 

 

The 2019 Application Security Hackathon is a capture-the-flag competition for Australian information security professionals, code developers and university students. Individuals or teams of up to 4 players will gather in venues in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane or play remotely.

The challenges cater to a range of abilities and each challenge (ranging from SQL injection to advanced cryptanalysis and cipher cracking) has a point value based on complexity. But importantly, the featured vulnerabilities have been carefully chosen to simulate the vulnerabilities that are all too commonly found in commercial applications today.
