2600 Glasgow: Hacker war games - beginner and advanced

We're planning to try some of the beginner/intermediate war games from OverTheWire.org

Leviathan
This wargame doesn't require any knowledge about programming - just a bit of common sense and some knowledge about basic *nix commands. We had no idea that it'd be this hard to make an interesting wargame that wouldn't require programming abilities from the players. Hopefully we made an interesting challenge for the new ones.

Natas
Natas teaches the basics of serverside web-security.

Krypton
The Krypton wargame features encryption and ciphers.

The games start easily, but get complex quickly - so those that already know their way around will get a challenge too.

This is a great event to get to know everyone, you can work through the levels at your own pace, or just help out others that are stuck. We'll also talk you through the solutions to help beginners learn.

We're being hosted in The Gamer Club, so there is free tea and coffee, or you are welcome to bring in your own beers/wine and snacks.

About 2600 Glasgow

Glasgow 2600 meetings are similar to those held around the world. Hackers, crackers, geeks, hats of any colour, technology enthusiasts, hacktivists, and other like-minded folks are most welcome. We do not judge anyone and everyone has something to contribute, no matter their level of expertise.

Unless specified, there are no particular topics or activities set for these meetings, and each one of us is responsible for making them interesting, whether in the form of intelligent discussions or exchange of knowledge. Anything goes.

Get to know us before the meetups via our Matrix room (#2600:glasgow.social - invite link: glasgow.social)
