Always wanted to test your hacking skills, but never found the right target, audience or excitement? Soon you can find it all at Infosecurity.be! Every day, 10 teams of 2 people will compete for the trophy in this exciting Deloitte Hacking Challenge. They work in teams of two and try to gain access to the systems and data of a fictitious organization in a Capture-The-Flag type of game. The Deloitte experts will guide the audience through the hacking game as your actions and those of your opponents are monitored and shown on a large screen for the audience. The opponents keep a close eye on your score in the battle for fame and an award!
