Those attacks are real on our platform. There are teams around the world, that have build servers on our platform and attack each other while defend their servers. It shows you who attacks whom.


Can those servers act as honeypots and attract real attacks too?


No! Not that it can't but because not this is its primary scope. It act like a private network where you can connect via VPN and start practice your hacking skills against real users and servers and not "vulnerable by design" ones as you find in any traditional penetration testing lab.


There is a small UX bug. It's because you didn't set up your country as a User. First go to your http://ctf365.com/users/edit and add your country there. Then the system automatically will register that country. That because as a Team Leader you'll fight for the country you came/declare from. It's Beta, we'll fix that too. :-)


Thanks - that was it.


Be more specific. At this moment, if you signup, and setup your VPN, you'll get instant access to Metasploitable2 ( http://metasploitable.ctf )where you can train and test. About Metasploitable2, you can read here https://community.rapid7.com/docs/DOC-1875


At this moment we haven't purchase any SSL certificates. We'll do when we'll go live. For some users that uses browsers that forces uses of SSL certificates they'll get that message.

Thanks

Yep, Homakov is one of the best when Rails is involved.


thanks, but not rails. i probably should have mentioned this. i'm not trendy - its php.


Egor works on the wire protocol; his work is not language specific. The reason people think he's good at Rails is that he's recently caught some serious rails stuff.

But since what he's really looking at is the protocol, his work should be equally good in any web setting.
