rye writes: The Network Forensics Puzzle Contest has opened their DEFCON 2011 contest for public competition, and it's AWESOME. Six rounds, five packet captures, one Truecrypt volume, and a prize for the Most Elegant Solution. Check it out:
"The lead chemist of a high-profile pharmaceutical company was involved in a serious accident, leaving him in a coma days before the release of the company’s highly publicized '133t pill.' The chemist was the only person in possession of the list of ingredients required to produce the wonder drug, and it is not known if he will ever recover. All chemical evidence of the drug has been destroyed, but the company believes that the missing ingredients may have been stored electronically. You have been hired as a forensic investigator, to recover the final ingredient of their 133t pill. Can you find the missing ingredient?"
