Hint Alert!

For digital-citizen-2, coppersmith is a must. Collect everything you learned from solving 1, identify all the possible "patterns" and then coppersmith to victory. #BSidesSF #CTF

Hint Alert!!

For slackblock-steg pay very close attention to what images the tool will accept to add a message to. Once you figure out what property images need to have, you should have a much better idea of how/where data is being hidden. #BSidesSF #CTF

Hint Alert!!

The acaan challenge is supposed to help prepare you for drago-daction.

drago-daction has a vulnerability that gives you a "write any data to any file at any offset" primitive, and once you're there they're the same solution. #BSidesSF #CTF

We've developed a state-of-the-art block cipher. It mixes 1x1 with 2x1 blocks. That's how those work, right? #BSidesSF #CTF (ctf.bsidessf.net)
