“The rules are very simple. You need to hack the D-link router (AC1200 / DIR-850L) and you can win up to $5000, “said Aviram Jenik, CEO and Founder of Beyond Security. “To try and help you win, we bought a D-link DIR-850L device and plugged it to the internet (we will disclose the IP address on 1st of July 2017) for you to try to hack it, while the WAN access is the only point of entry for this device, we will be accepting LAN vulnerabilities as well’ he added.

“We have been doing this competition for the past 2 years but until now, it has been a physical event,” said Noam Rathaus, CTO and Co-founder of Beyond Security. “This year, beside doing it at a physical location, we are also doing it online, so that it will allow those who can't attend an opportunity to take part remotely. The aim of the event is to direct security researchers worldwide to our ‘for-researcher program’, where we pay for and publish their researches, which is a win-win situation for them” he also added.
The competition will end on the 1st of September 2017. For more information, please visit https://blogs.securiteam.com/index.php/archives/3236
