Spy Hunter Holiday Challenge 2014

This holiday season I have created a network forensics challenge for the community to try and solve. This scenario, called “Spy Hunter – Operation Hermes” is the first in a new series I am going to create and publish here at My War With Entropy.

All solutions should be submitted to me at Jordan 2175 with no space at Google’s mail service no later than December 20th, 2014. Winners will be announced in January. Entries will be rated based on completeness and overall explanation of what happened and how.

Please NOTE I will NOT accept any documents in PDF or Word format.  Only plain text email and documents, something readable by pine, vim or emacs, will be accepted. By submitting a solution you grant me the right to list your name on this blog.

Good Luck.
