Spy Hunter Holiday Challenge 2015

This holiday season I have created another network forensics challenge for the community to try and solve. This scenario called “Spy Hunter – Operation Ares” is the second in a series that follows the questionable activities of Insider1.

All solutions should be submitted to me at Jordan 2175 with no space at Google’s mail service no later than December 20th, 2015. 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.
