sensecon 2021 – wargames edition

This post summarizes Orange Cyberdefense’s internal SenseCon 2021 (Sept 16–18), an online hacker conference run via a custom Discord bot themed after Wargames, featuring CTF-style challenges (Unity game hacking, a server-side XSS-based PDFMaker puzzle, password cracking, and a two-part bot interaction), a dynamic tic-tac-toe DEFCON mechanic, workshops on red team reconnaissance, PLC coding, and advanced web scraping, and an eight-team 24-hour hackathon, with an invitation to a public Discord to try select challenges.
