Last week, we published our 44Con “SillySIP” Challenge for free entry to our BlackOps training course at the 44Con conference this year. We’d like to thank all those who attempted this challenge.
$queue->add($beatbox_drumroll);
The winner, who responded with the first correct answer, is Ben Campbell. As a result, he gets to hang out with our trainers on a free BlackOps training course.
Congratulations Ben! We look forward to meeting you (in person) at the BlackOps training.

In a similar fashion to the BlackHat challenge held earlier this year, we’re giving away a free ticket to our BlackOps course at this year’s 44Con. As a penetration tester, knowledge of an issue is not enough when one needs to demonstrate risk to a client. Furthermore, when large numbers of potential targets are involved, it becomes crucial that effective attacks are packaged and automated to allow for mass-pwnage.

As the need for online anonymity / privacy grew, the proxy industry flourished with many proxy owners generating passive incomes from their proxy networks.
Although ‘proxy’ is normally thought to imply some sort of daemonized application, such as Squid (or a SOCKS) daemon, the last couple of years have heralded in the age of CGI proxies and more commonly, their PHP variants.
These PHP proxies are extremely trivial to deploy and configure, especially since most hosting environments have PHP installed by default. When development of PHProxy (a popular PHP proxy) ceased, many devoted fans starting releasing their own customised PHProxy fixes and variants. In recent years, however, many proxy owners have gravitated towards Glype since it seemed to be well maintained (though the current status may be questionable).
