0x90r00t - CTF Team
Hi everyone,
A quick note for those who do CTFs (Capture The Flag): we put together a team with some friends, and it’s called 0x90r00t. I’ll let you figure out the meaning of this name!
We are a brand new and fresh team, and our first CTF was the Hacking Week on May 8th. We finished 5th out of 106 (Results). Yes, we hadn’t yet settled on a definitive team name, so temporarily we called ourselves (n|b)00bz_CMB.
We were partly present at Nuit du Hack 2k15 (but we met other people with whom we worked on the challenges, so it wasn’t under the name 0x90r00t that we did the challenges).
Finally, very recently, we participated in PoliCTF.
We really enjoy this, for several reasons. First, it lets us do challenges! And that’s delightful, especially since the challenges offered at CTFs are very often all different from one another, covering multiple domains, which forces us to open new doors in order to solve them. But it’s mostly because we get along super well as a team, and it’s a real pleasure to work together on challenges.
We try our best to maintain a blog that contains the write-ups (i.e. explained solutions) of the challenges we managed to flag (i.e. that we validated). This blog can be found at this address:
Feel free to drop by and give feedback either directly on the blog, or on our Twitter, freshly created!
See you next time, maybe at a CTF.
