The competition required us to secure and administer a handful of networks full of virtual machines hosting common business services, as well as continuously respond to IT request tickets and deliver professional reports to supervisors. Students are tested not only on their cybersecurity skills, but also on their time management and interpersonal skills. OSUSEC walked away with 1st place, and will be attending NCCDC (Nationals) at the end of April!</description></item><item><title>Meeting Notes 11/09</title><link>https://osusec.org/blog/meeting-notes-11-09/</link><pubDate>Wed, 09 Nov 2022 00:00:00 -0700</pubDate><guid>https://osusec.org/blog/meeting-notes-11-09/</guid><description>Howdy hackers! Last night, I covered cybersecurity in software development. I talked about how you can incorporate security into each stage of the Software Development Lifecycle, some examples of how that has gone wrong in real life software projects, and the different mitigations that have come about in an effort to control memory corruption attacks (an example of improper input handling).

The slides for the meeting are available here (ONID required): https://docs.</description></item><item><title>Cyberforce Competition 2022</title><link>https://osusec.org/blog/cyberforce-competition-2022/</link><pubDate>Tue, 08 Nov 2022 00:00:00 -0700</pubDate><guid>https://osusec.org/blog/cyberforce-competition-2022/</guid><description>This past weekend, OSUSEC’s Cyberdefense Competition team flew out to Chicago, IL to compete in the Department of Energy’s Cyberforce Competition! We were tasked with securing and administering a network of 6 virtual machines, then defending it against a team of hackers. Cyberforce also tests students’ abilities to budget their time and respond to miscellaneous requests from managers relating to the NIST framework for cybersecurity. We brought home 10th place out of 169 teams, and placed 1st place for team style 😎</description></item><item><title>Meeting Notes 11/02</title><link>https://osusec.org/blog/meeting-notes-11-02/</link><pubDate>Wed, 02 Nov 2022 00:00:00 -0700</pubDate><guid>https://osusec.org/blog/meeting-notes-11-02/</guid><description>Howdy hackers! Welcome to the second half of Fall term! Tonight we hosted NetSPI: Senior Director Karl Fosaaen and Security Consultant (and former club member) Michael Jereza. They walked us through penetration testing as a career, what work is like at NetSPI, their NetSPI University program, and some entertaining stories from their pentesting work! We hope you had fun and walked away with an enthusiasm for pentesting. If you enjoyed this, definitely think about getting involved with our CPTC team!</description></item><item><title>Meeting Notes 10/19</title><link>https://osusec.org/blog/meeting-notes-10-19/</link><pubDate>Wed, 19 Oct 2022 00:00:00 -0700</pubDate><guid>https://osusec.org/blog/meeting-notes-10-19/</guid><description>Howdy hackers! Hope your week 4 is going well. Tonight Cameron introduced Reversed Engineering (“Rev”) challenges and how to pwn them. Rev and pwn challenges are a staple of CTF competitions, and we covered a few of the most critical tools in your arsenal for approaching them. We also walked you through an introductory pwn challenge called rev01 that is hosted on our CTF Practice Range. We hope you were able to walk away with some new skills.</description></item><item><title>Meeting Notes 10/12</title><link>https://osusec.org/blog/meeting-notes-10-12/</link><pubDate>Wed, 12 Oct 2022 00:00:00 -0700</pubDate><guid>https://osusec.org/blog/meeting-notes-10-12/</guid><description>Howdy hackers! Thanks to everyone who showed up tonight! Tonight we introduced the NSA Codebreaker Challenge, and held a work party. Hopefully you were able to make some progress on Tasks in a focused environment and get free dinner! We covered previous year’s Codebreaker themes, the NSA’s mission and how that inspires the Challenge, and introduced the different tools that the NSA recommends to approach the Challenge with.
