#1 - Security Competition

The first competition will examine the security measures taken to hide and obfuscate files on a server, such that they may be downloaded under controlled conditions. The winning team will be the first to download a file from the given location by any means except those disallowed in the rules.

The participants are invited to share what they have learnt about web security with x10hosting members.
