This week I participated in the Cardiff School of Technologies’ virtual hackathon.
We were given two modules on the EC Council’s Learn on Demand platform to complete in the shortest time possible, ‘Hacking Wireless Networks’ and ‘Hacking Mobile Platforms’. The modules involved following a series of instructions over remote access to several virtual machines from the browser.
I didn’t get a very good score, with the first module taking me 26 minutes and the second taking 78 minutes. However, I enjoyed having an opportunity to use penetration testing tools and learning about different exploits.
