So excited for this — @Zardus, @TheConnorNelson, et al. have built something groundbreaking in pwn.college. Learning to write an exploit should be available to all — and now you’ll be able to *graduate* to the next level of pwn at @DEFCON Learn more at 4:30p today!!

Thrilled to join @Zardus in announcing DEF CON Academy on Saturday at 1630. Wouldn't have been possible without @thedarktangent, a fantastic co-conspirator in this effort.

Hello hackers! pwn.college just passed a massive milestone: 1 MILLION flags have been captured by hackers across the platform! The millionth flag was from level 84 of the Program Interaction module! What a wild journey from humble beginnings.

A few links for getting into CTF: pwn.college from @shellphish has lectures and challenges with great interactive environments—a fantastic set of resources. In addition, highly recommend picoctf.org from @PlaidCTF and github.com/RPISEC/MBE from @RPISEC
