DEFCON 20: Network Forensics Puzzle Contest

Decryption keys and answers for the DEFCON 20 Network Forensics Puzzle Contest are listed below.  The website indicated that they will provide a full write up of the solution.

If you're wondering where the questions are, they were on CDs handed out during the con when you registered to play.  You just have to go to the DC Contest Area and look for their desk.  The moderators will give you a piece of paper where you have to write your team name and a phone number where they can text you the decryption keys.  They will also provide you a cell number where you can text your answers.  For every correct answer you text them, they will text you back the decryption key for the next round and so on....etc. 

I guess if you can read packets, write code, analyze and listen to talks at the same time during the con, then you have a good chance of having a productive Defcon weekend.

DEFCON 20: Swag and Con Stash

I was able to acquire items I planned to get this year.  The only item I missed out was the RFID reader because the vendor ran out.  I got 2 badges and all 3 lanyards.  You'll need all 3 lanyards (green, red, yellow) to solve the puzzles.  I also got the Defcon backpack and pocket books.  I was also able to get my copy of Metasploit signed by Dave.  Other acquisitions worth mentioning, Reaver Pro and the Wifi Pineapple Elite.  My badge was able to pair with a number of other badges, minus the Artist and the Uber.  I remember pairing with an Artist on Saturday night, but obviously it did not dock properly.  As far as the Uber was concerned, I did try to find any of the contest winners Sunday afternoon after the Closing Ceremonies but it seemed like everyone of them was rushing to the airport or to the next party in Rio.  Either way, my badge still reported my rank as "Hustler"
