iCTF Contest: Ulm Security Sparrows in Top Ten!

On Friday, 4.12.2009, the Ulm Security Sparrows (USS) team participated in the 2009 edition of the "International Capture The Flag" competition (iCTF 2009). More than 800 students from all over the world grouped up in 56 teams to demonstrate their skills in practical security. On Saturday, 2 am (CET), the contest was over. This year's winner was the cInsects team from Hamburg University. We were also happy ranking 10th out of 51 which is quite an achievement considering the tough competition. As the faculty team adviser, I want to congratulate all USS members for the excellent job they did and look forward to next years iCTF. Thanks also to Giovanni Vigna and his team for organizing this excellent series of contests.
