 While we're waiting for the Irvon Underground, I spent three hours with the Metro Police Department last night, and about three hours collectively with security. As of this morning, ladies and gentlemen, historically of all the DEF CONs, this has been the least provocative, least problem-filled, best DEF CON held in Las Vegas. Because I have to put up with the likes of assholes like you. Oh no. We watch him daily. The feedback I got was hotel security was 98% happy with us. I will tell you honestly. They, coming in the door, we had, I was told this by Metro, they had Metro SWAT on tactical alert, which is kind of frightening because you can't really snipe bits and bytes. But God bless them they were on alert. The hotel security guys had four single space typed pages of all the crap we had pulled over the years. No? Do I have dumb ass taped on my forehead? I'm not even going to bother. It's too easy. So from my point of view, I want to thank you actually for making this one of the most pleasant DEF CONs that I've had the pleasure of attending. And hotels, like I said, hotel security was 98% pleased with it. The 2% they were not pleased with actually had to do with some very isolated incidents. That was marketing demographic 49B, the anarchists. The point I guess I'm making is it looks like we're coming back next year. That being my personal opinion from the feedback from security who said, you know what you guys, we literally thought it was the Visigoth and the Huns coming off the planes. Thank you CJ. Where is CJ by the way? Where is CJ by the way? We're going to go ahead and do that because he looks just like that guy in the commercial. And they were actually very pleasantly surprised and they also want to thank you for being so respectful and so polite. They said they weren't cursed out once by any of us. Everyone was very polite. And I'd like to personally ask you to please continue that tradition because we're finally in a convention where we actually have air conditioning. I don't know about you but this broken down old asshole would prefer to stay in an air conditioned venue as opposed to 110 degree in the shade at night venue. So if you could all please continue to do such a great job of policing yourselves and taking care of that 2% that tries to ruin it for the rest of the 98% of you, that would be wonderful. And again, please give yourselves a round of applause for putting on such a great con. Have the Irvine Underground arrived yet with their Fed? Bring them on down. Can I announce him? Here comes the Fed. I need to announce him. Special Agent Hilbert. I need to announce him. Yeah, I don't know where he went. We found him earlier. He came to our booth. White courtesy phone for Special Agent Hilbert. White courtesy phone for Special Agent Hilbert. That usually doesn't work. The Bureau has gotten smart to that one. By the way, if the gentleman who just met with me upstairs could please come find me after we're done here. I would really appreciate it. And the gentleman that I talked to in the hall about coming and finding me as well. I want to make sure that we can close the loop on some stuff. That should get the conspiracy theorist going. So what do you got? He's not here. I've got his card. That's all I got. Now he's got his card. Okay, we've got a card of a Fed. Where'd he go? Yeah, sorry guys. I have a really good story. All right. We can do me. I have a really good story. Special Agent Hilbert actually came to me four years ago. I believe it to ask me a few questions about something that was going on in my local area. He came walking into my house. It was an interrogation just a little. Walking into my house and my grandmother entered the door. She politely let them in the inside, sat them across the couch from her, and continued to play solitaire as they began the interrogation on her. By the way guys, remember it's like vampires. You have to actually invite them in. Yes. It was only two minutes until my grandma caught on quickly as to what they were asking about. Called my name and I came rushing forward to the unfortunate scene of two Feds and my grandma playing solitaire. Your tax dollars at work. Yes. That's a great story. Thank you very much. That's fine. I think we're ready for the man of the hour, Mr. Dark Tangent, the guy who actually makes this all possible without the moving judge. Thanks guys. This is my well-deserved gum and coke right here. I earned it by challenging a Fed. It busted me the last two years in a row by using one of those challenge coins on me. So this year I came prepared and he coughed up. So this one's for you, Jim. I'll be reading about you in Wired Magazine next week. Okay, so before we get started, basically what's going to happen here, we've got about an hour. We're going to do kind of a con wrap-up. We're going to thank the goons. We're going to go through all the contests. We're going to hear from the people who ran the contest, what happened, what's going on. We're going to talk a little bit about next year. And then we're going to let you guys set you free. And then hopefully see you again next year. So to start it all off, first, I want to mention a couple of things that led up to us changing venues. How many people here by show of hands thought that we'd outgrown the AP like three years ago? Five years ago. Five years ago, right. Well, it took me three years of looking to find a hotel. And when we found the hotel, it took a year to get into their schedule. So I mean, we knew it was painful at the AP. Just we didn't have a whole lot of options to get out of there. But now that we're here, the problem is it's easier to create parties than it is to create content. And I was really trying to find a place that would allow us to do a lot more content. So for next year, we have where the dart throwers are, that old other half. So we have even more space. And then down the whole hallway there, all those little rooms, we've got all those. So now the problem is we've got more space than we know what to do with. So part of my challenge to you is now you've been here and you've checked it out, start thinking like what do we do with all this space? Do we do tutorials? Do we do training? Do we do little breakout sessions? Strippers. But are they Asian strippers or blonde strippers? That answer is yes. So once you guys get back home, I don't know if you've noticed, but we've moved the DEF CON Forms to a new machine. It's faster. It's on its own bandwidth now. And we just bought some photo moderation software that we're going to be integrating next week. So you can upload all your CON photos and you can organize them and people can vote on them and do whatever. Well, we also want you to give us feedback there and come up with a contest idea. You'll notice that these guys who play the games or run the contests, we didn't go down and find them. They volunteered. They came up to us and said, hey, I've got an idea. Can I do it at your show? And DEF CONs turned into this great platform where I can give you a stage. I can give you a room. But it's really up to you guys to figure out what you want to do with it, you know, if it's leader of its lane. And we'll figure that out real quick. So with that in mind, just start thinking about what we want to do with all this space. And you guys are going to figure out the parties. That's going to be an easier thing to solve. You know, we don't have pool2girl.com anymore. But we're going to try to do something outside. Now that the hotel knows who we are, we have a little bit more negotiating power. Yeah, we're going to try to get one of the whole towers so we can just stick our guys in one of the towers so there's like no, you know, norms around us. It's just kind of, yeah, just kind of us. But when we came to negotiate with them, we're like, we want the tower, we want your TV system, we want your network. Then we'd like the pool. Yeah, and they looked at us like, what the hell? Who are you? So, but now that we made it through this first year, I think we can do a lot more. I need to take my electronics off very quickly, I'm told. You're a very crazy man. Okay, so I want to kick it off. First, Zack isn't here, is Zack here yet? He's still not back there? Okay, we'll introduce Zack. Where is he? I don't see Zack. Zack. What we're going to do is we're going to get all the goons up on stage, all the people. If you're doing security and you're still in the back of the room, if you see anybody wearing a red shirt or a green shirt or a blue shirt who helped run the show, raise your hand if you somehow helped run this show and let's get a round of applause for everybody who helped out. Come on, raise your hands. All those guys up there, they're hiding out in the depth zone. Come on up. So let me introduce you to Zack. Many of you might know Zack, he's the master behind the puppets. I'm sort of the guy at the wheel, but without any of these people, there'd be no car, there'd be no road. And while I'm over at Black Hat, Zack's job is here to set the show up and take care of operations once it's running. So Zack wants to do something special for all the goons that have helped out. So I'm going to pass off the microphone to Zack. We get done with the ceremony. We're going to do a little question and answer session with anybody who's remaining. I can answer some of your questions. And we can do a little playing for next year. And we can go drink. So Zack, here you go. Hey, Zack who's not nearly drunk enough. Okay. So, can I have all the goons on stage? The ones that are down here. Richard, come on, get your ass on stage. There are many. And there are slackers up there in the network box. Security. Okay, I just dragged my ass in here. So I think Jeff already said hi to the network team. So Locke, Heather, video man, Squeak, Louise, Wes from the hotel, Derek and James from Rant Radio. Thank you very much. It fucking worked. Now, where's the big man? Is Priest and Noid down here? Or are they up there boozing? Ah. Okay. So... Just took his way, please, sir. Haha, not quite yet. Hey, I'm my first personal loud hailer. Mr Priest. Noid, who's his smaller clone. He is, in fact, Chief of Security and his boss. Fun enforcement. So, Pape, John Doe, go minus one. Flea, Kwee, Freshman. And? Come on, the list. I don't have a list off the top of my head. Yeah, you do. Yeah, but there are a couple of guys that do want to sing a lot on the security staff, though. They did a bang-up job. Pape, first off would be my second command. He's up there on the... I also want to point out nobody in arc light. I'm not sure if either of them are up there. But we had a medical situation the other night, and nobody is actually leaving the country in the next couple of weeks to go become doctor nobody. And arc light is with search and rescue out of San Bernardino and is an EMT. The two of these guys were so on top of it that the hotel just backed off, let them do their job. They were impressed. I was impressed. They were consummate professionals. And I can't thank the guys highly enough for the way they behaved. Is the guy going to live? Yeah, the guy was just fine. The guy was just fine. Also, we've got some new guys on this year. Skydog, D-Code from Freaknic. Picked up a guy by the name of David from Poland. And everybody worked out great. The teams ran smoothly. And I don't think we could have asked about some of the issues that went on last night. I don't think we could have asked for a better convention. The attendees were great. Everybody we interfaced with was just happy to be a part of things. When we had to tell them things, they knew we weren't doing it to just be a jerk. There was a reason behind it. And everybody was happy to comply. And it really made the event run smoothly. And I'd like to thank you guys for doing that. Thanks. You didn't kill the hotel. Okay. Topped away in a box up there. We've got the dispatch team, which is Cat, Noise, Ben, Doolittle. They can probably only hear us over the radio. So thanks, guys, to the dispatch. Okay. Another team that's been doing a bang up job. For years and years and years, we had lots and lots and lots of really, really drunk speakers. And Agent X and the speaker control team. Yep, Proctor, KK, who was... And Crash are also involved in a medical response. Code 24. Nick Farr. Mike Amish. And Cog Mario Joe. So let's put it together for speaker control. Okay. So you're going to see Russ up here in a minute with the contests. But Russ Pyro, Dan, Eric, Mel, Urus Necho, Rick, Brian, Brian, Dennis and Ray. All worked on the contest. Everything went smooth. People got wet outside the dunk tank, including me. So contests. We regged almost 7,000 people. It was a nightmare. But lines moved quick. So TWQ, Reheal, Seastone, Octopussy and Tyler Cohen regged. And also shout to Chuck and the Reg's brannies. Also at the Swagbrook, Rescue, Skidder, Dada, Deadhead, Rick, Brian, Neil and Neil, D-Ren, Skybox, Dolittle, Makita, Syphon, Verus, Travis and A. Oh, no, no. I've got a slot for Blackbeetle. Anyway, Swagbrook. We're all wearing it. Okay. Quartermasters. We moved lots of crap around. Major malfunction. Tom, ETA and Jacob. Without it, we wouldn't have stopped. So, not long to go. Okay, Romar, Alex Rogan, Focus Maximus and Evil, Swag. And Vendor area, sorry. Okay, Infobooth, because people need to know what's going on. Falker, Snakebite, Meloman, Clone Loader, Griffet, Gen, Tozer, Catch and Rescue. Okay, we have Press. Niko Sel, Dirk, Nicole have been actually managing to make sure the press stayed in line and they did a bang-up job last year and they're here again again. So, press guys. Brister who sorted out all your parties in the Skyboxes. Okay. Blackbeetle, ETA, all that team that actually designed, put together all the swag and there was good swag until this year. I actually, I'm going to have to FedEx my shit home. Thank you very much, Blackbeetle. Okay, now there are three last people. There's Cheryl, who's here, who interfaces with the hotel. There's also, I don't know if they're in the room. Theresa Madsen and Doug are hotel head of security. They are the guys that made this a rocking con. The space is great, the setup was a breeze. And, you know what, no one died. So, it's a good thing. And, thank you to Hotel AD. I did network already, didn't I? Yeah, I think I did real fast in the beginning. Cool, okay, and that's about it. So, give it up for the guns of deaf gone. Okay, so for some of you who've been around a while, noticed that our contest area has been growing each year and that's because more and more of you guys have been getting involved. Well, it got to such a state that we decided we had to have one person drive it, and that's Russ. Russ has put in so much time and so much energy. You might also know him. He's really involved in our DC groups, our planning lists, and organizing new deaf con groups. So, I don't know how he has time for his own company and us, and you, and a wife, or girlfriend. A life, let me say that, time for a life. So, I just really want to thank Russ and single him out because a couple years ago he really re-injected a lot of new life into the contest area and he really kind of pushed me to get the games in order. And so, I just want to thank you for that and I want to pass it off to you to introduce us to these games. So, thank you. All right, so this is the long part of the awards ceremony. I will be as brief as I can because everyone else is going to be really wordy. There were a lot of unique challenges that have come in here this year. At one point we had Fokker from the Info booth have to rush over to Amateur CTF as an electrical line caught fire. We had the wardrobe people get in trouble with hotel security and everybody was freaking out. This was actually a very interesting year. I'm going home and sleeping for a couple of weeks. I'm going to try and get all this right. I have no alcohol up here so there won't be any drinking for me if I screw this up because I will. First people I want to call up are the Wallace Sheep. You guys have seen the Wallace Sheep in years past. I'm Riverside, I organize the Wallace Sheep. Eat the mic? Yes, put the mic in your mouth. I'm Riverside, I organize the Wallace Sheep. There's a bunch of people helping out. Putting a little old school into this, I wrote my notes on a paper plate. I'm going to try to make this short and sweet. As a wise bartender once said, using unencrypted traffic is still known as a dipshit move. That was Dallas party last night. DEF CON has one of the most hostile networks in the world. You shouldn't just protect yourself at DEF CON. You should protect yourself everywhere in the world. A major university, foreign and domestic government agencies, as well as quite a few attendees have joined the flock on the Wallace Sheep. Based on over 100 captures this year, we see that there's obviously still the need for the Wallace Sheep. There are a few things that we need to throw out. Without these people, this would not have been possible. First and foremost, thanks to all the Wallace Sheep crew and all the people at the tables. Give them a round of applause. Thanks to all the DEF CON staff, especially the DC Knot crew, for providing us an awesome network this year. Special thanks to our new Sheep of the Year Knot crew member, Squeak. Squeak, a round of applause. Come collect your prize. Come on, Squeak. On a serious note, we really enjoy running the wall every year, but we'd rather not have to. Please, don't be a sheep. Thank you. Alright, Tim, Dennehy, can I get you to come up here, please? Alright, every year we have artwork submissions. Some of those end up on the shirts and stuff that you buy. This year we actually had some of that artwork end up on our own shirts. Yeah, you're going to want that. Tim Dennehy actually created the design that is on all of the Goon staff shirts. He's already gotten an ass load of prizes at this point, but he gets a black badge as well, and I'm just going to let him talk a minute about his design. Thank you. One of the things that's really cool to me about the contest is every year that I've been coming, I really believe that Def Con is what we all make it. And I think that the more contests that people involve themselves in, the more we get to feel like we actually contributed to the Con within us just showing up. So that's my feelings on it all. And thank you very much. Alright, Jeff, do you want to talk about DC forms real quick? The Cotman's gone. Ah, okay, we won't. Alright, Mr. Summit. Robert? Hackajar? Yes. The Summit. Alright, Hackajar actually runs a fundraiser for the EFF, where he gets a bunch of people that think they're important together in a room with a lot of other people that think they're kind of important, and they pay to get in, and they buy lots of alcohol, they drink, they get drunk, and the money's given to EFF, so here's Hackajar. Thank you very much. This is the second year of the Summit. It's hosted by the Vegas 2.0 group. Formally, we were part of the DC 702 group last year. The idea behind it is one day I woke up and said, I need money for the EFF, but I don't have six grand. And so, but we know a lot of speakers and cool people out there, so we asked them to come out. You have all these great speakers and great technologists and hackers out there that you want to talk to, but there's obviously 8,000 people here and you can't find them, so we put them in a room for four hours for you to talk to them for 35-buck donation to the EFF, and that's what we did. This year, we were able to raise $2,306 for the EFF. And last year, we raised $3,195 for the EFF. We didn't announce that last year, so we also raised that. So a grand total of about $6,000 from across the last two years. We hope to see all of you guys there next year. It'll grow. Hopefully, we'll get more sky boxes as it grows so you can talk to these guys and have a good time. Thank you very much. All right, so this next one's going to kind of shock the POC that I call up because I have not prepared him for this at all. So if you have cameras prepared, you might want to get a picture of this. Eric Helmstead, can I get you to come up here, please? All right, Eric ran our dunk tank this year. This is typically run by Frank. Frank had to take off this year, so Eric stepped up to the challenge and did a really, really good job this year. So I'm going to let him talk about it a minute. Do you have the actual total, or should I give that? I have the actual total. Okay, all right. I'm better prepared than he thinks I am. Yeah, that's minus the year. There you go. All right, I'm going to announce the top 10 dunkies first. Revenue-generating dunkies. I was going to dog the person that only brought in $13, but I'm not going to do that. Number 10, bringing in $154 was the nurse. Number 9, bringing in $160 was Zach. Number 8, bringing in $165 was Amber. Number 7, bringing in $172 was X. Number 6, right here, Russ, bringing in $182 and a quarter. Number 5, Adora, $190. Number 4, dark tangent, $211. Number 3, $252 for Pyro. Number 2, for $270, major malfunction. And before I announce the top earner, who, if you were here for Hacker Jeopardy last night, you probably already know who it was, honorable mention to Mudge. She was only in the booth for 10 minutes and still brought in $88. Pretty impressive. So the number one earner last night after Hacker Jeopardy was Banshee, Vinyl Vanna, $370. So the grand total was $3,686 and 20 Euro and 5 Canadian and 25 cents. Thanks. So we decided to write a check to the EFF instead of hand them handfuls of quarters and dimes and dollars. Is the EFF representative here somewhere? Derek, are you here? Here he is. So this is the representative of the EFF. This is what we're doing it for them. And so we decided to take the $3,686 and round it up to $7,500. So that's pretty impressive. I was really scared because there were some times that place was deserted. You guys know there's an outdoor hangout area, right? Really? Yeah. Okay, reopen the tank. Proctor, can I get you up here for a couple of minutes? Part of growing next year is we've got a couple of new contest ideas. We're going to toss out there. Proctor's going to toss one out there. I want to mention one more. Wi-Fi shootout did not happen this year. Dave Moore figures he's proved his point already. But I have had a request go ahead and do the Bluetooth shootout next year. So we're going to see what we can do with that next year. And then I'll let Proctor tell you about his idea. If you're on the forums at all, you will have heard about this already. So I've always felt that there was one thing that was missing from DEF CON. And it's always bothered me. I've discussed this with DT, there's just no security vendors here. And I know how much you all enjoy watching vendor presentations. So this contest idea was actually developed by Marcus, Rainam and I while drinking at RSA. And we were thinking, we were thinking, we call it buzzword survivor. Now imagine if you will, 10 chairs. Well, that may be part of it. Imagine if you will 10 chairs. Imagine if you will 48 straight hours of vendor presentation. And a $10,000 prize at the end. Now we figured we're going to go for what we think would be the biggest cash prize. We're going to see if we can get more out of the vendors. The main reason I'm up here telling you guys about this is we're going to be discussing on the forums over the next year. We've set up a special email address. If you think you might want to sit in one of those 10 chairs for the prize. Now one of the things that we're talking about is potentially doing, if you make it 24 hours, getting sound of knowledge. So you don't have to miss it. And also after sitting there for 48 hours, you also get to, we'll be ending it before the Saturday night parties. So you can go to the bathroom. Exactly. Well, the details are being worked out. But it is buzzwordsurvivor at gmail.com. So anyway, guys, if you're interested in participating, you can go to the forums. We'll be talking about it. We're going to try to put that together for next year. Thanks very much. All right. Joe Grand. Anybody know about the badges? Everybody has the badges, right? Joe Grand is actually the individual that created these. He's been around a lot longer than a lot of the new attendees would ever guess. He's actually was kingpin with the loft. And there was actually a mini reunion here this year. But I'm going to let Joe talk about the badges. He ended up running a small contest on this this year. So, Joe? All right. Some of you guys might have noticed that we have a badge with some active electronics on it. At least 6,000 of you guys have them and the other thousand have some cardboard. Sorry about that. We honestly had no idea that we'd get rid of that many. So what happened on Friday, I gave a little talk about just the whole process of designing the badge and pretty much spur of the moment idea that Dark Tangent and I had was, why not create a contest? We have some electronics on it. Let's see what you guys can do with two LEDs, a microprocessor, a switch and a battery. And so we announced this on Friday morning. And I told everybody that if they were interested, I'd be judging at noon today. So they didn't really have a lot of time. And we ended up with some really cool entries. Actually, we only had eight. So eight out of 6,000 is not good. But it's better than zero. And it turns out actually, yeah, there's some really cool stuff. So I'm going to give out three awards. Some of them you guys might have seen. A lot of people had modified their badges for extra LEDs and extra blinking and cool stuff like that. But I'm going to mention first an honorable mention, which I just thought was kind of cool. Zane ended up making a flamethrower out of his badge. So if you're out there, you can come up Zane and you can demonstrate it if you want or you can just get your prize and run away. But he had the flamethrower coming out the mouth, which was kind of cool. So honorable mention. Second place goes to Mark, who is here somewhere. Mark, as far as I know, had no real experience with a microchip processor. He'd never worked with an IDE before, a graphical integrated development environment, all those slick tools. He ended up hooking up some of the development tools that we had available in the E-TechNet booth to the in-circuit debugger port on the badge, ended up sucking the firmware down, modifying it, and changed one of the modes of the LEDs to actually blink Defcon 14 in Morse code. So that was pretty cool. And then my favorite, which is why it's the winner, is Scott, who's over here setting some stuff up right now. The interesting thing is Scott had no idea that there was even a contest going on. As you can tell, he's an audio file. He's a DJ. And he ended up seeing the badge. And without even knowing what was going on, he went to Fry's Electronics, picked up some parts. He wanted to integrate it into some of his audio circuitry. And Grifter ended up telling me on Saturday, he's like, you got to go check this guy out. So he's up there, headphones on, just playing around with this thing. And I was just blown away. So he's setting up a demo. Essentially what he did is he turned the LEDs into event generators, which plugged into his analog synthesizer. So every time the LEDs go off, either the left or right channel will actually enable some sort of sounds. So as he's setting up, I guess we'll give a demo of Zane's flamethrower. And the LEDs haven't caught on fire yet. That was me. Yeah, so I had the squirt gun. For those of you guys, remember this is way cooler. So that's the flamethrower. Yeah, he's the honorable mention, so Russ has a prize for him somewhere. It's a laptop condom. So is Mark actually here? Mark, if you're here, come up. Okay, he's waving. So he's coming up. Scott, do you need more time to set up? Do you want more time to set up? Okay, it's as good as it's going to get. He doesn't have the rest of his equipment, because he was actually still sleeping when I called him from Caesar's party. Yeah, all night long. Sorry about that. Caesar's party. Yeah. That was nice. But here's the demo. All right. So, yeah, you know, this all started just with the conversation with the OSVDB guys. I was talking to Toby actually, and we're like trying to figure out just what the code might be on the fourth setting. It turns out it's random, so that sucked. So I thought I'd just try to use my ears and see at first if I could hear the code rather than see it. So I have two piece of tweeters installed that run between, you know, three volts, so it works like a chimp. But it's really, really annoying, and so I couldn't listen to it long enough to actually decipher the code. I didn't know if it was because it was random or just really annoying. So then I decided, okay, I'm going to put a headphone jack in there and take a left and right channel for the left and right eyeballs. And then what I'm going to do is turn this into an envelope generator for this analog synthesizer I happened to bring along with me today. Yeah, I didn't build this this weekend, don't worry. So, yeah, and so what I thought I would try to do is see if I could hear the difference. Now, unfortunately, I don't know how to solder. I circuit bend it best, and I had a lot of help. Probably 20, 30 people have helped me out with this. Up there in the sky lounges, we had all sorts of people. I mean, for Richard, for hanging out with me at Fry's for three hours, where I figured out what the hell I needed to buy, you know, I could go on it, and I don't want to take up too much time. There's just a lot of people who have helped out with this, and it's really been a community hack, and I really like that. So I'm just going to get right to it and hope that everything is jacked the right way because I unplugged all this last night and just didn't hear it without hearing anything. Oh, okay, on the back, thanks. Really hard to see, of course. There's two piezo tweeters, and basically I just circuit bend because I don't know chips or programming or anything like that, so I just take a small wire and touch different areas to see what I can hear with my sound to find out where the channels were, and then after I was able to do that, I just got together with a soldering gun and some folks to help me learn how to solder. The problem is most of the joints in here are still cold solder joints, and then after dancing last night for like 12 hours and using this thing at a party, one of the joints is broken. So now I only have one of the two channels for modulation, but it's enough to generate sound to get the idea. If I were able to hold this little wire and connect it there while I do this at the same time, well, heck, that'd be harder to do than everything else I've done, so maybe I can get this the... Maybe... You can't say joke? Yeah, how am I soldering iron? This little wire has that fat cold solder joint right there? Yeah, target that. For the red? Yeah, the red and that fat ball of solder. So let's see if we have just general volume here. It's an event generator, so the only way to tell if there's sound is to hit the button and your guess is as good as mine if this is going to work. Good job. There we go. I think the other thing is I've gone through like eight batteries because I'm pushing two pieces of tweeters and analog out over attenuation, so I know enough to know that I'm out of juice, so that's the demo. So actually I have some videos of this that I'm going to put up on my website and it'll probably end up on the DEF CON forums and stuff and it's way, way cool. We're going to end up giving out a microchip development kit so he can maybe learn how to solder and do some other stuff. So some of the same things to Joe for designing such a kick-ass batch. I mean, think about all the things you could do with that thing if I can actually use that kit to turn this thing to an oscillator then I'll actually have like some serious gear. And here's Mark, by the way. So he gets a prize too and Russ has it. So the one last thing I want to do, I've actually wanted to do this since we started talking about designing the badge, is hopefully if someone can control the house lights we're going to turn the lights off and if all you guys can turn on your badge and cover your faces because we're going to take a picture or put on your mask or whatever, turn them on and just hold them up because I think it's going to be a really kick-ass picture. I don't know where the light switches. Oh, there we go. That's cool. Yeah, that's awesome. We need some love songs going on here. All right, that is all. Thank you guys. And stay tuned. We might have some other hacking contest next year. Don't expect a badge, but it might be something. All right, so next up we have Fufas from the Coffee Wars. Man, there were a lot of freaking submissions this year. You guys like your coffee as much as your alcohol. Good afternoon. Every year at Coffee Wars is beset with some new challenges. This year there was just a little confusion about when the con would be starting. I'm not sure if any of you noticed that. But behind the scenes, Sherd Lou and I were actually marooned in an Albertsons parking lot on an ill-conceived quest for water and cups, so it was quite a challenge. But every year Coffee Wars triumphs over those little adversities, and the magic happens, so in spite of it all. And as always, we owe thanks to many. Russ in particular helped with all the pre-con organization, but more importantly, he really smoothed things over for us when the delays started happening. So thank you, man. Thanks also to the DEF CON forums for helping whip up the pre-con enthusiasm agent who did his bit by supplying two of the most unusual entries. Usually we only announce two winners, but these coffees set kind of a new standard. After DT's entries, the next most expensive coffee was Turd Foo's Panama Carmen Estate, which was a respectable $24 per pound. DT's cheap entry was $80 a pound. But we want to really honor his expensive one, because we'll probably never see anything like it again. It was $180 a pound. The Poo Maximus Arabica entry had the lowest bang for the buck score by at least a factor of 10. So we have an award for you, and I don't know what is funny or the fact that this steel thermos comes in a protective leather case, or the fact that it is actually an official Lockheed Martin steel thermos. Well done, sir. I just have to say, after Paul Proctor told me about the coffee beans that are processed through the Poo of these tree cats, I had to have some. Yeah, because who wouldn't? So now for some more serious data. We rate coffee entries on a score of 1 to 10 in various different categories. Bang for the Buck represents the highest ratio of overall approval to the cost per pound. And so we've never awarded a prize in this category before, but this year we had a lot of people who were doing home roasting and we thought we should recognize this rapidly growing means of getting great coffee for cheap. So this year's winner has placed highly in the past and we have a mechanical creature called a saw-saw which will probably destroy everything in your house. Qubit with Brian's Panamanian Peaberry Perfection at $4 per pound broke the 1.0 barrier in Bang for the Buck at 1.1. The second place entry was 0.82. If you're here come get your special prize, sir. All right, and lastly our winner hails from my home state and submitted beans from a well-loved local roaster which apparently I have been underestimating these past years. So the field seemed very even and all of the judges didn't realize that there was one entry that was pulling ahead of the rest. It stood out above all others. So our prizes, we wanted to give this contestant a round the world trip, but we couldn't afford that so we got a round the world trip courtesy of my favorite roaster, 3 pounds of excellent coffees from around the world. We also have from no starch press donated a VI mug, so if you're having trouble remembering how to search in a place while you're drinking coffee. And then we also have a fashionable insulated mug in hacker black. Steve Tornio with Altera Delta Mud at $9.45 a pound rated 7.29. The second place entry was 6.43 so we won by a fair margin. Come up sir and claim your prize if you're here. Alright, if any of you know Steve tell him to find me otherwise I'll get it to him back in Wisconsin. Thanks. Oh you're going to post the results? Results will be posted both in the forums and on coffeewars.org as soon as I finish the write up usually takes me a couple of weeks. I love complaints so send them right away. Alright, beverage cooling. Where are you? Here he comes. This is really dangerous. They tried to set up by the pool. There were some security issues with that. Lock you okay with him pulling this off for a second? Too late. I asked. Okay, how's everyone doing? Having a good time? Alright, I'm deviant. You may have seen me in the lockpick village much of the weekend. But I also ran this little known contest called the beverage cooling contraption contest. Inspired by if everyone's ever seen MythBusters. There was an episode where they wanted to get beer down to drinkable temperature and they didn't do too well. They were actually self-critical. They're like, wow, I thought we could have done better. And I was like, Defcon knows a hell of a lot more about techy shit and beer so we could kick their ass. I was really proud of everyone who came out. I'm actually I'm particularly proud of just everyone else who said this but the crowd has been really great this year. The vibe was amazing for the new space. We kind of roll with the punches really well and to thank people for that I have extra swag that I'm just going to start flinging. So if you're up front you're kind of lucky or you're not because some of it's pointy. So, you know, shirts and we have some any like old school gamers in the house some emulators, every collection ever of Nintendo and Genesis. We didn't have the movie channel this year but you've seen projected on some of the walls. The filler content that edited G.I. Joe's and music videos and everything Tiara's was a great guy. We helped him recode a lot of it. So we have some DVDs of that and this one's hard for me to part with. This is probably going to go to one of the winners. I don't really decide any strong, strong winner. They just kind of pick the prizes out and work it out. If anybody caught the mini bosses set last night it was amazing somebody's getting a signed mini bosses CD so that is going to be terrific. And that was going to be, you know, this plus some Simpsons beer signs, which have been at Civiac's house since last year and we still don't have them here. Those are going to be they were going to be the grand prize until we found up in our collection of locks that we had purchased like just we just like wipe, you know, a bunch off the shelves at Home Depot before we came here. Somebody was picking one of the locks and he said hey is this a joke or something? Did you plan this? And I said what are you talking about? I wish I could take credit for this because it's badass but we actually have a master lock that the combination is 31-33-7 so someone's getting that really fast. Everyone did great. Here's the run down Iotis. Iotis actually had the most crazy pimped out extreme cooling contraption. He cooled so much that he overshot his target though so he was producing ice and some of the beer but we recognize that. What else we have? Bus Prof, if anyone saw the professor who actually had computer cases put together and used them as his cooler, it was really cool. He had, you know, his ports on the back were beer can lids and beer caps from all around the world. The Wicked Awesome Beer Ninjas came back again this year. They didn't use liquid nitrogen but theirs was one of the few contraptions that could take a whole load immediately without any spillage so they get like the mouthful recognition there. And the big hometown showdown was the two Vegas teams this year and everyone was curious how it was going to come out. There was DC-702 Brian and Rob and there was Hackajars Crew with the Vegas 2.0 so the actual winner was DC-702 because they cooled consistently right to the range we needed and you guys did a, come on up. They have amazing, amazing stuff. They took a beer because these were beers that started out at room temperature indoors and then we were out there for like three hours and we were cooking. By the end of the day they ran a beer from 92 down to 36 degrees in like two minutes and it was very nice. But Hackajar really gets special credit because his was the most powerful cooling I ever saw. Even though he didn't get it down to the target range the end of the day the beers were 108 degrees and he dropped them over 65 degrees in temperature in two minutes time. Everyone, I always love seeing the designs. I love to see, come on out even just, you know, watch because you get a lot of free beer and I appreciate it very much. I appreciate everyone who lets me do this and everyone here. Thorne took over the war driving contest this year. I'd like to give him kudos for dealing with law enforcement. Thanks everybody. I'll be real brief here. We had two teams enter this year and it was render man and team, I want a fucking jacket and the past couple of years winner team pre-kill preset kill limit and we ran two contests the first one we kind of ran into a little bit of a problem of security. They got freaked out by antennas going by big antennas on people's shoulders so we got shut down for a little while. That was okay actually from one standpoint because we had battery pack on one of our units die so we kind of had to reset anyways. We worked it out with security everything came out okay. We got limited down to just the convention area but we were willing to work around that. So we went ahead, we ran the running man contest and the running man was found in 15 minutes 19 seconds by the team I want a fucking jacket and then we ran the fox and the hound and the fox did not run real far this year because we were kind of limited. It just ran under the stage in the contest area and the teams took an hour and 15 minutes or so to find the fox they walked around it like, oh wow 20, 30 times so we had them finally find it and then they had the box they had to own the box which was just a simple WRT-54G the password was printed on the box neither team could figure that out it was a big white label but they both missed it after fiddling around with it team preset kill limit did in fact brute force the word they got in, they owned the box so we had two teams at each one one thing we had a tiebreaker today with some questions and in the end team preset kill limit did win again for the third year running, big hand for them so all in all we got prizes for each of the teams but considering that both teams were not able to actually see what had occurred the prizes this year are optical, we have binoculars so that maybe they can read things from now on so Eric, Phil you guys here and team I want a fucking jacket okay there's Render you guys get the big binoculars, thank you and you get the little binoculars thanks, thanks a lot folks appreciate it and I just want to give my thanks to Chris for giving me the contest this year I had a lot of fun, didn't get off completely the way we wanted but we're going to do better next year, thank you very much just a quick note on that the info booth is never the fox okay they stared at the info booth for I swear to God 15 to 20 minutes they tried to go through our stuff snake bite was about to jump out of the booth and let them have it alright if you've ever seen an angry Asian woman yeah so info booths off limits for that for next year alright so we had a new contest this year we figured we'd give it a shot mystery box challenge alright lost this thing was awesome how many people saw it or participated in this okay would you want him to do it again next year alright so here's lost when I first came up with the idea for this contest I was actually talking with Cotman he wasn't here on the IRC channel and I said man we have all these hardware contests and nobody's entering case in point we just had a call for it and nobody showed up nobody wants to do a build before they come to con and I said how can we get hardware in people's hands and I thought well let's do a build at con but I approached it as a mystery box and did not tell anyone what the contest was now if you think selling a new contest to people is difficult try doing one where they don't know what the contest is I had 15 teams sign up I had to cap it at 15 because I didn't want to build me more of these boxes and I don't think my wife wanted the living room littered with things that looked like bombs any longer because she didn't want to have to explain to friends that would come over why there were these little makeshift boxes all over the house anyway just a few key points stuff that was fun just like the thorns contest I actually gave the teams the solution to the problem four times during the contest and the team that actually made it to the final stage first didn't win because they didn't get that and it was given to them as the first clue I had nine teams finish out of 15 six didn't even complete the challenge next year we're going to actually make it tougher I want to see about a 50% success rate I'd like to call up team Nostromo crew third place you'll notice that our good friend Joe Grand is on this team I have to jab him about this Joe and his team were up at the final stage of the contest Joe actually designed the RFID reader that I used I had great joy in watching his own hardware defeat him so for third place I have some prizes controller kits Jinx Hackware was kind enough to donate some t-shirts you can see it was a pretty big team second place was team Halibut sorry guys sorry where you at team Halibut I'd also like to point something out here the team that actually won first place didn't know they were entering this competition until they got to Khan they were walking by my booth I had 15 boxes they didn't show up and these guys were standing in front of the table and I said hey guys you want to compete and they said sure and they actually won the competition and I think it's very apropos for a hacker conference first place team last minute where you guys at come on hurry hurry render man was actually kind enough in the church of wifi they donated a 100 gig drive I've got two robotics kits for them sorry I gave out all the t-shirts I got the crap oh yeah that's right I got the cool magnet just in case you're all wondering because I'm sure a lot of people looked at the website and said what the hell is this thing they were all given a box that had two locks on the outside and a third that was covered with an LCD there was a circuit on the outside with wires that they had to disconnect in a proper order if they did that they received a number they also had to pick through the locks and they left unlocked and they picked it shut we weren't the only ones that did that they didn't realize that the box was unlocked because also on the inside was a neodymium magnet that most of you know your lock picks are ferrous and trying to pick a lock with a rather strong neodymium magnet behind the lock is not an easy task I would like to give special bonus points to the teams that actually extracted the pin out of the hinge in the back and bypassed the locks altogether I'd also like to give honourable mention to the team that used the dremel tool and was throwing 10 foot sparks in the contest area I can say thank you to everyone that participated it was more fun for me than it was for them I'm sure I went from team to team and just watched the stuff that these guys were doing it was crazy there will be a write up in about two weeks it'll also be posted in the DEF CON forums if you're interested you want to know more about it I guess popular demand I'll do it again next year if you guys want to see it also really quickly we did a breakout session with the robot build and we took donations for the EFF so I'll also be giving the cash from that to the EFF hi virus so here's the cool thing anybody remember the old CTF where everyone just came and kind of set up their own thing and beat on each other we kind of switched like four or five years go to this whole team thing and we got a lot of us hanging out there because I suck and virus X came up last year last minute and kind of thought well you know let's give it a shot last year went okay had some hardware problems but this year it went really well and I'm extremely happy we had 106 people sign up for this before they got here so it turned out really well without further ado here is virus X last year was interesting because we had a test about two months before con and said yeah sure let's do it it's a cool idea so we hosted it over wifi yeah bad idea so last year nobody won because nobody cracked the box and like we had four teams show up on the spot and two of them couldn't get connected because the wifi kept getting hacked and it was this horrible mess so after con last year we all got together in this big group and said okay so you know we just prepped and figured maybe 20 people would show up because that would be a massive increase in last year and then I had 106 people on my list and I got this email from Russ saying no you have to like do all this crap and like you know you have to have projectors and that's to be fancy and you're going to have press and yeah you know in the damn near had a baby so first the fact that we pulled it off was a freaking miracle I had a bunch of people show up I didn't even know throughout the year my crew needs to come up here and get the presser for show we need to get them around the hand because this wouldn't have happened without them for real so decent up for nine what the contest was was if any of you remember when rootfoo used to run CTF everybody had a box it had stuff running on it hack a service, keep a service as long as you hack it you get points this is the same contest only we had all the boxes we made some of them really easy we had ten boxes nobody got past level six so apparently they weren't that easy we had a hundred we had 31 teams registered we had about three of those what three or four of those four of those show up and a bunch of other random people that wanted to play so we let them play and we had three main folks so I guess I'll give out my prizes before I shut up they already bailed but we gave them a prize so we'll just clap for them because they were there and second place was sudoers so if you guys are out there come here get your prize we got prizes there we go these guys came in late too they weren't registered and they just walked in and kind of did it technique what that's theirs oh yeah took a while to find that out oh yeah not getting some of these boxes was embarrassing because like level seven we rigged it so you could see the source code if you went to the right URL and nobody got it okay first place by a rather massive margin was WCSC I'm pretty sure they're still around so if you guys come up and get your big box really interesting fact about these guys is they were the ninth qualifier apparently for Kinshoto so they were like the one team that didn't get in so they figured hey we'll do amateur CTF that should be easy enough right yeah no there was like a massive tug of war for the first two places all game I mean we had a while where like we had one box that was half owned by both teams so they were just running scripts to take points from each other for like two hours scoreboard was just going back and forth I'm going to post all the scores on the site so and I'll have a full rundown of all the hacks that were there and all the stuff that people got and didn't got and what we're going to do next year to fix some problems but yeah I'm going to shut up so people can finish alright Sid alright Scavenger Hunt was here again this year very disturbing to most of the hotel staff who had not seen this before I apologize come on up hey guys you're going to have to cut me a little slack the voice left Friday I'd like to thank everybody that participated everybody that generated any sort of buzz about the Scavenger Hunt this year as a lot of you may know I won a lot in the past and once Grifter and all the guys in the 801 step back looked for somebody to take it over and it was me I had a great time putting the list together was really painful and took a lot of the hangovers I had no idea how much hell I put the 801 guys through sorry Grifter had about seven teams that competed this year I'm looking at arranging some stuff to make it a lot easier for smaller teams to compete next year just like to give away DeafG with $43.94 actually already got their prizes and took off and the second place was on with $91.95 and first place was Vegas 2.0 Hackajars team once again with $94.50 it's about time come on up and if team on is here come on up too we've got your swag it's like everybody to know we've got boxes of swag I do a lot of work to get this stuff together we've got a fully functional Teddy Ruxpin we have 8 tracks we have a lot of really good stuff too we've got DeafCon windbreakers everyone in the vendor area was great I don't think anyone in there did not donate a grip to us I'd like to thank everybody in the vendor area all of our competing teams and I'll turn it over to Hackajar he's been waiting to get this mic for this challenge for quite some time hello again after three years we made it to the first place it was pretty humiliating being the local team and getting second place two years in a row we're supposed to have a grip on this I want to say that we finally got this damn black patch and a lot of beers and getting people drunk and all that stuff finally got it to us we'd like to thank all the goons that accepted the free beer and this contest you guys really need to sign up for this they really need to keep it going this contest is a very interesting technical contest but this is a life hack contest you're a great hacker at life and figuring out things and problem solving it's my favorite contest here and all the team members as well and we fought with other teams for many many years pitted battles and everything but when it really comes down to us you're a life hacker to do this and it's fun and exciting what was the hardest thing the hardest thing was explaining to them how they were jumping out of the hotel for jumping into the pool with roller blades and a trench coat so they said well okay you're the only team we won't kick out but if somebody else jumps in here they're so gone I'm like okay great so we're really proud of this contest we're so happy that they kept it going strong year after year just because we won it this year does not mean that we're not going to defend it next year so come and take us on next year thank you so much and lastly I got to get some mad greets out to all the Vegas 2.0 guys that helped out Holly Ripschy Packet Baron and of course the 503 guy who's our goon in the hole Jake and they didn't mention it because he didn't know there was a contest but he actually hacked his badge to turn off all TVs when he walked by just for the record we'll have a great year and see you next year thank you one of the experiments and contests we started three years ago was the robot wars the first year we had one entry it won last year we had two entries which we were all really excited about Calahar has done an absolutely fantastic job keeping this contest going and bringing it to a level that everybody can learn how much stuff happened as we go so I'm going to hand this over to Calahar he didn't get any sleep at all last night and he feels like crap I'm sure so give him hell thank you yeah this was the third year we had six contestants this year's contest was to create an airsoft gun which could shoot down autonomously 30 targets that were set up vertically 10 feet away 10 feet down the trick was of course it had to be entirely autonomous so as soon as you click start that's it there's no more human control allowed so I was very impressed six teams all of them had working robots that were able to shoot down most of the targets so we have prizes here for the top two teams second place was a tie between Irvine Underground and EVA they were able to shoot down about 90% of the targets before the 5 minute time limit so they can come up and in first place we have Team Octopi from Utah you guys can come up they were able to tie in their college senior project to a DEF CON contest so big props to them to mixing the two worlds they were able to shoot down all 30 targets in 37.7 seconds so next year's contest it's going to be a lot of the same stuff more airsoft, more shooting so we're hoping to double the entries again to hopefully 12 so if anyone wants to sign up we'll be on the forums and at DEF CON bots.org what was the hardest part of what? was it mostly vision? yeah all the teams used cameras to track what the targets were the targets were 1 inch, 2 inch and 3 inch live with an IR, beacon in the center and tie in those into the computer and the vision and getting the gun to track to where all those different targets were was very difficult but all the teams were able to do it anything else? third place is not here no they're not here DEF CON BOTS.org they're going to have the videos of the competition if you did not see it you have to watch this it was absolutely amazing although I found it a little bit ironic that there were a whole bunch of liberal hackers in a hotel designing acquisition systems for military okay doc lockpick lockpick went off great again this year extremely popular he's got tons of really cool swag in five minutes hi I'm doc and about four years ago Kai goth and I had this brand idea we'd do a contest and somehow we came up with lockpicking I don't know how but it has really taken off over the last four years so now we have done officially done LP CON 4 inside of DEF CON 14 and so we're always ten years behind but that's okay we can deal with it first off I'd like to as I'm talking I'd like for Sam, Chris and press to go ahead and come up alright and if you want let's go ahead and have a werelock and Omicron come up as well first off I have to think the people that make this possible it's not one person it has to be a team of people and so specifically I want to thank ToolUSA if you're a ToolUSA member and was helping out please stand up I want to recognize you because it was impossible to do it without you great job also the guys from lock sport international please stand up thank you the majority of our prizes here were donated by the University of advancing technology that's why there's a couple robots up here again we try to make it fun we try to make it interesting we had for the first time ever we did what was called a lockpicking village and it was an area that was set up in one of the skyboxes where you could go up there and learn how to pick a lock there was seminars given by both LSI and ToolUSA folks there were discussions there were people just sitting around teaching each other and it was an incredible form just to learn how to pick locks and if you think physical security is not important in our world today we walked down to do the first contest of the speed competition five minutes Eric was running around saying our room had been picked open and that people were in there playing so thank you for not stealing anything while you were in there alright the first contest I'm going to go through is the new contest we did which was the points competition the points competition was run up in the skybox there were 25 locks out of and there were a possibility of 705 points you could get don't ask me why are there five points came from there were 56 people that signed up for that we had at least 50 people in that room at any given time we have three top finishers for that and I have prizes for each of those do I have everybody? the first is the third place finisher for the points competition is Sam Duffy Sam had points he opened 17 locks the third place finisher gets a lovely bag and also they finished third which is an incredible place to be out of 56 but maybe a little more practice would help a little bit just to bring it up a little bit second place in points 430 points 18 locks third and second were separated by finishing one lock Chris Pinnacle Chris I should have said this before Chris got a keylogger do legal things with that just for practice 128K keylogger and the first place finisher with 22 locks out of 25 and 550 points is going to get that lovely raptor sitting right there is WSB Press now the next portion of this is the speed competition we are going to probably rename the speed competition which in this case the last couple years has been an oxymoron probably the skills competition because there wasn't a lot of speed behind it but it certainly did take a lot of skills to get through the locks that we had put into place there were 38 people that signed up for this competition we ran it in three rounds obviously 38 to start or to the finals to make it to the finals it took a lot of hard work so I'm going to quickly run through who the winners are and the first place finisher gets the black badge this is a black badge event so third place is our good friend werelock werelock also got a lovely bag and an extra board to practice his lock picking skills on second place is WSB Press and he's going to need a bigger suitcase to go home he's going to get some spy gear that was donated by UAT and last but not least somebody that perseveres even through cussing and anger as the locks just will not come unlocked it took 26 minutes to get through three locks that were on our lock boards these were Home Depot specials specifically purchased hoping they would be easy whoever made them had a good day because they were not easy but it got done and in 26 minutes Omicron had finished everything and he gets this lovely Robo sapien as his prize and he's going to need a bigger suitcase too as I said before the winner of this event does get a black badge and that goes to Omicron right, that's it for them who's Nick, G mark, who's doing Hacker Jeopardy alright Nick Farr, you here okay we did Hacker Jeopardy again for the 12th year out of 14, still not bad I got a winning record here anybody make it last night? anybody catch vinyl? EFF gets to contribute to that so this event contributed more to EFF than anyone else so we think that was pretty good normally we have three qualifying rounds going to the final Hacker Jeopardy round we lost two hours at the beginning of the first day we had to eat up the last hour at the end of it because we were the last event of the day so we skipped round two so round one the first set winners was no vodka for win next round then the winners there were IPV sex and so in the final round they played deus sex machina IPV sex no vodka for win and the returning champions the nymphs which consists of bobcat foofas and billy go to well this year yet question are you looking for a book you just bought it this man sold to the man over here in pursuing their quest for a second consecutive victory and for bobcat his fourth victory they also were able to do some other things as well the nymphs with a final total of 8703 points broke the all-time record for Hacker Jeopardy they also earned the Humperdink award by consuming 19 beers between them in the 50 minutes of competition bobcat foofas billy go to you here come on down there's no way too much about way too many trivial things yes and they wait no way too much about the other issues we're not going to discuss in a public forum they got four out of five on anal so anyway we need to increase the gene pool next year for teams so if you think you got what it takes and you know something come on out and try out for Hacker Jeopardy we'll make it a lot better competition next year so we have a black badge as a presentation that we'll give to billy go to head to your increasing collection and to foofas what is your winning technique we drink a lot and when that fails we drink even faster drink a lot drink faster it works well it's important to keep your mouth shut actually actually I'd like to thank winnikfar and gmark for putting on the game doing a great job banshee was the best ever and ashley and alonka working the beers thank you very much I would also like to thank the other teams for not vomiting on us this year that was special no blackberries were harmed in the production of this event we do have one special honorable mention to one of the teams no vodka for win you guys here all right they're back there you guys get the buffalo bills award for the most consecutive losses in a championship game they're gone they're gone win had something special to give to you but we've already given it away to somebody else so this is like combat there are no points for second place come on back next year give it another try win thanks for all the great stuff you do thank you everybody come on out next time for hacker jeopardy to be bigger and better than ever alright last one visgoth kinshoto gentlemen alright ctf was very cool this year this will be it for the contest if you have ideas for next year please email me we'll take care of you so first of all we are all completely exhausted and I am mildly incoherent so if I don't make a whole lot of sense up here just kind of ignore it first of all we would like to give a shout out to the people who actually make this possible because we are all a bunch of incoherent specialists who can't handle normal day to day things ladies and gentlemen the kinshoto gopher is in the back so for this year's contest we had 130 teams sign up to play and we qualified rounds which was sort of jeopardy style involved several different categories of challenges forensics we had a category called ponage which basically involved actually taking over remote services on systems across the internet which was kind of cool we had cut service providers once because one of them completely disconnected our service when they saw all kinds of stuff going by that they thought was scary so it came down to several teams being able to make it in the game to qualify seven teams and of course the previous year's winner so this year's challenges in the real game the platform of choice every team had to both defend and attack a Solaris 10 server all running completely custom or mostly custom applications written by us that they had to reverse engineer develop or find exploits and also then develop exploits that actually land across this chaotic network challenges this year arranged pretty heavily some of them on purpose, some of them by accident we had some services that had keys only existing in memory so you had to not just spin up a shell but actually read out of memory instead of exacting VNSH because your process memory goes away we had teams having to submit their stolen tokens over DTMF analog lines that we gave them the first thing they all did is run out and buy modems so this year's contest in seventh place we'd like to give a shout out to an ad hoc team that took the place of a no show team and actually did pretty well they actually landed a couple of the binary services and that kind of thing we give them special thanks basically for stepping in the game kind of goes out of balance when people don't show up so in sixth place we'd like to give a special shout out to the east sea are they here east sea are you guys here they're all the way in the back so this team flew all the way here from south korea to play CTF and they were basically the first like completely international team that we're aware of this might be an incorrect statistic correct me if I'm wrong the other thing that they had going on is their rockstar didn't get a visa they had him VPN in it like remote from south korea coming in in fifth place is the team that kenshodo that had the best name which is the team our wives are pissed they told me that they had to win because it would be the only way that they wouldn't be so pissed this is their first time playing and they did a fantastic job in fourth place we have the ever present school of root previous years winners and most stolen from this year so big shout out to them where's the school at there they are all back there of course you are in third place we have shellfish last year's winners they were like the breakthrough leads so the way CTF works is you steal tokens, you overwrite tokens and you submit to us proof that you are capable of landing these particular services so the teams that are the first ones to discover and successfully exploit particular vulnerabilities get special points because in previous years one of the things that we noticed when we played was that we would do all this work and throw it and then another team would capture it and replay it and we'd get one scoring cycles worth of tokens and then everybody else would be doing the same thing so breakthroughs are a critical component of the game and shellfish was by far and away the breakthrough lead big shout out to Giovanni and them in second place we have the team with the most overwrites they were also the only team to discover a vulnerability that we completely did not intend the analog bridges that we were using to commit stolen tokens were talking back to an asterisk server which apparently has DTMF control channels in it that you can use to change the analog bridges IPs so in second place we'd like to give a shout out to the team FEDNOT who said that their entire preparation strategy was put laptops in suitcases and of course last but not least in first place we have the absolute stealing masters they stole more tokens than was even reasonable they're led by last year's individual champion Atlas and they also have an ambiguous name it looks like it could either be first or last place so I think that we've officially decided being first place I'd like to give a big shout out to the team first place why don't you guys come down Atlas CTF the only competition where you get eight black badges and the jackets yeah yeah open up the banner so starting last year it sort of became a tradition that this big banner that we get printed up every year goes to the winning team so here's your banner guys here's your jackets you want to have your team captain come up here and say a little something first of all I'd like to thank my awesome team I'm not that great I already told you that earlier this week but I get poof I get choops for choosing great guys I'd also like to thank the chotto guys they put together a great competition this year the prequels also rocked thank you very much to Defconn staff the wonderful Gophers my wife and thank you very much a lot of you guys come up and support us cheer us on appreciate it it's been a long weekend we did well thank you thank you why don't you give a little insight into your like winning technique I already told you I chose great guys very early on we one of my power hitters really just nailed down interacting with a modem real quick a couple other guys worked with him to find access everybody else's boxes start stealing keys and then submitting them automatically we came to the con prepared we talked the day before we talked the week before we talked all the way up there we scheduled we had automated scripts so that when we'd steal a key boom it was already in and as I said last year we just tried not to piss everybody off so they wouldn't come and kill us also as a quick aside team captains we'd like to talk to you get some feedback so if you get a chance we'll probably be hanging around for quite a while so stop by and give us shouts out and let us know what you thought and what not so congratulations again team first place alright so that's it for my area we're going to have Lockheed come up again if you have any ideas for contest really would like to hear it also want more participation next year thank you very much from the contest area here's Lockheed with the network thanks Russ you can go drink now alright I like to give you guys some stats about the network and DCTV this year first of all this is what we do every year we take about six or eight months to plan this whole chaotic thing that we do we have a number of networks that we set up some that are more secure than others as well as taking on DEF CON TV so I want to start out actually by talking about what happened with DEF CON TV this year this was the plan nothing never happens by plan the last minute we got some new restrictions placed on us no PCs could be used to generate dynamic content and we could have no physical access to the head end like we're used to it's okay so we made DVDs every couple of hours and rushed them up to the hotel staff to swap out Snickernet I do want to actually give props out to the DC801 guys who did get the movie channel stuff already for us so I'm sorry I couldn't get played this year we're going to work with the hotel and make sure that we have better things next year and of course we're always taking ideas so email address mail us don't spam us things the network this year is much what it always is every year we have our trusty Aruba wireless kit thanks to dark tangent open BSD firewalls taking care of keeping people out of where they shouldn't be lots of cable and gaffer's tape this year we had a six meg connection to the outside world and of course some really freaking awesome hotel IT and AV staff we were really worried about this being a union hotel this year seen as we couldn't do a whole lot ourselves and we had to make them do it so we kind of consider that we've evolved a higher state of being but none of it would have been possible with a lot of homebrew if you've ever seen the DEF CON knock it kind of looks like that at any given time of day up in our luxurious skybox internet traffic this year we saturated our connection all weekend long so that's about a hundred and seventy two gigs of porn and one gig of MySpace on the wireless side and no we did not keep copies of that you're okay on the wireless side we have over 2,300 users across the network we were able to pull out a lot of stats here we had on average 220 people online at any given time with as much as 515 at one point we only recorded two wired rogue APs because we don't enable that we did have 25 people trying to be the official DEF CON SSID they were shut down about 2,300 DOS attacks in 2,000 man of the mill attacks all of which were stopped and then a lot of ad hoc networks which is just you guys trying to talk with each other or possibly causing chaos wireless LAN we had as you can see a lot of traffic going back and forth some of which went out to the internet some of which would not and as my guys tell me a lot of people are still trying to get you with Goat C so I do as we mentioned at the top of almost 2 hours ago I want to give a lot of thanks to my infrastructure guys, Heather and video man it's always good to have a married couple on infrastructure Squeak and Effin for doing all the Wi-Fi stuff major malfunction for being a resident bad man I take care of all the politics and of course Derek and James from Rant Radio for handling all the DCTV stuff so up in the sky box give them a hand guys so that's it until next year dark tangent everyone thank you so next year we'll need more of those mega gigabits won't we I got a new statistic while the contest results are being aired apparently this is the first time in history that every speaker that was supposed to speak spoke and every speaker spoke on time apparently relatively speaking so that was a new milestone for us and a lot of that I think is related to agent X and the Wranglers, the cat herders and speaker control so that was very cool and then also Zach is walking over we have we have sitting over here the two people here referred to earlier we have Teresa stand up and we have Doug stand up these are the two people that we dealt with the hotel the most without their help and them working with us for many months before the show and during the show none of this would ever happen and so we want to say a special thank you to you guys for being a super cool team to work with and we're not all that scary in the end so we'll be seeing you next year so before I shut this thing down I want to just open it up if anybody has any questions I have time for I know four or five questions if you want me to talk about anything otherwise I'll shut this down so so the gold badges that Joe created he created one sheet and I think Joe's got what oh you created there's 20 of them you've got how many I've got one I owe you another one because you have two so we've got 18 in the DEF CON World headquarters somewhere did you want one is that what you're getting at so maybe in the future we'll give that away as an extra super secret prize or something because we have no need for 18 of them I just want to keep one and put it on the shelf so we might come up with a reason next year to release one maybe for the badge hacking contest or something so don't despair any other questions why do I hate freedom dot net I like that network until it went down anybody else are we cool do we think we like this place we're gonna come back next year you think cool okay so my what I wrote at the beginning of the CON and the program the Alvalve or Die I think we're evolving so that's the plan so I'll see you guys next year and give everybody a round of applause for putting this bad boy on see you guys
