SecTalks LON monthly meetup (online event!)

Hey SecTalks! from March 2020 we'll be hosting our events online - at least until we're all able to buy toilet paper again. For now, this will consist of a capture the flag challenge hosted on Slack.

You will need to be ready with the following:

• Membership in our Slack channel. To obtain this, you'll need an invite: send me (Patrick) a private message on meetup with your email address and the solution to this encrypted phrase:

fvb hyl sprlsf av il lhalu if h nybl.

• Your laptop, for hacking

• Some beer or cider to drink while hacking at home, if you like to drink beer or cider while hacking at home

• You'll probably end up writing a little bit of code, so make sure your favourite compiler and/or scripting language is set up. Or vim.

Once you have a login, at the appropriate time (6:30pm on Thursday, don't get it wrong!) join the Slack channel #sectalks_lon in Sectalks Slack and instructions will be posted. You can also join the slack channel at other times, it's filled with fun people.

Make sure you're able to log in to Slack before the event, and request an invite per above if you can't!

Don't forget, the winner this month gets to write the virtual CTF for next month! Woo! Virtual CTF!

There's usually a bit of collaboration, so don't worry about having to solve this all yourself - we'll keep an active

This will be an online meetup. Don't go to Cisco's office, security will be very confused.

New to InfoSec? Not a problem. While coding skills are recommended, we encourage people to work together and to share their solutions to the problem each month.
