Hackfests are specially scheduled demonstrations that include open member participation hacking, cracking, exploits and IDS. Hackfest labs are open encroachment events with designated targets, to include shared network insecurity of the most extreme style. Extensive setup and tear down, forensics and IDS are required by volunteers, therefore Hackfest labs are team lab format events to make the best experience for all attendees. We will showcase awards and have prizes and contests hopefully in full force with a solid team by Xmas. *Hack test your installations, networks, and program source using Linux Security distro tools . (Arrangements are happily accepted to coordinate extra credit with local College teachers.) * Monthly security presentations and lectures, with open PLUG participation occur, on the second Tuesday of every month.
