Just got back from speaking at SummerCon, which was a ton of fun! They really have a unique vibe that's only possible from a small conference with a loyal following. Personally I appreciate the conference's sense of style and personality, and their meme game is impeccable! 😂

If you’re headed to DEF CON, don’t miss the AIxCC exhibit. Not just to see me (I’ll be there and at LiveCTF) But to hear about a competition that will become a huge dataset that will drive future research. Lots of heavy-hitter technical minds between the teams & everyone else.

Who's ready for hacker summer camp?! The LiveCTF team is excited to be joining Nautilus Institute again for DEF CON CTF finals starting tomorrow! Check out the schedule showing our streaming links and live bracket! livectf.com

If you're not at #defcon right now and feeling some CTF FOMO, you can still tune in and watch the semifinal and final matches of LiveCTF at livectf.com Scroll down for a bracket with matches in your local time, and tune in!

The #defcon hardcopy of Phrack Zine is a thing of beauty! It embodies both technical depth & the hacker spirit (as usual). Reading Orange Tsai 🍊's musings on CTF & his role as a bug archeologist was like recognizing an old friend. Thank you, Phrack staff, for making this treasure.

Phrack turns 40. The digital drop is live. Download it. Archive it. Pass it on. 💾 phrack.org #phrackat40 #phrack72

ICYMI: 5 systems from AIxCC are now Open Source: archive.aicyberchallenge.com An unprecedented opportunity to peek into the toolkit of top security teams. Everything from prompt templates, to terraform code, to implementations of very recent research techniques, it's all there 👀

Team Atlanta's report explains how their 1st place CRS found & patched bugs... and you can just read the code! github.com/Team-Atlanta/a… The report covers a ton: orchestration, LLM strategies, patch generation... but really shines in its coverage of practical fuzzing issues.
