UW computer security team looking for new members, info session tomorrow

We are Batman’s Kitchen, the UW competitive computer security team, and we are looking for new members.

 

Interested in learning about computer security issues and/or being part of a competition team?  We hold regular meetings, practice breaking/hacking stuff, learn about computer security topics (both technical and non-technical), and compete in CTF/hacker jeopardy competitions throughout the school year (and Summer too).  You don’t need any prior experience in computer security to join the team — all you need is some interest in security and a willingness to learn.  Our group is an interdisciplinary group of students from CSE, EE, iSchool, pre-engineering, and other engineering departments.  We also collaborate with the UW Tacoma Gray Hats.

 

Our Info Meeting is tomorrow, Wednesday, October 2nd, CSE room 303, at 5:30pm.  We welcome everyone.  At the Info Meeting we’ll talk about the type of competitions we do; upcoming presentations from industry like iSEC, Facebook, Google;topics we will cover in the coming year; in addition to finding out about groups like Neg9. 

 

Even if you can’t make it to the meeting, sign up for our mailing list at https://mailman.cs.washington.edu/mailman/listinfo/uwctf and check out our website at http://uwctf.cs.washington.edu.  If you have any questions, email me and I can tell you more.

 

See you Wednesday!
