Hi everyone,
This morning from ~3am through to ~10am there was challenge and CTFd downtime across all challenges. To avoid any impact on people's submissions, we are extending the due date for Topic 2 by 24 hours to Saturday 6pm . The assessment spec will be updated to reflect this.
I'm also going to take this opportunity to remind everyone to submit the group registration form: https://forms.office.com/r/skrQ1vVYQv
Thanks,
Hamish
Hello everyone!
We hope everyone has been enjoying the course so far!
This notice is to let everyone know that the assessment spec for Report 1 is now available: https://webcms3.cse.unsw.edu.au/COMP6443/26T1/resources/119419
UPDATE 2026-03-03 18:56: Fixed wrong info about allowed group members.
However, more importantly:
Please fill in this form to register your group (or ask to be placed in a group) by the end of Friday : https://forms.office.com/r/skrQ1vVYQv
You will receive a 5% bonus if you correctly register your group and (later on) submit your report.
If you don't currently have a group, I would strongly recommend trying to find a group at a tutorial this week before submitting the above form.
Also an FYI that there will be up to 2 hours of quoccacorp.com downtime from 7pm to 9pm tonight.
Thanks,
Hamish and Kris
Hi everyone!
Welcome to the course! We've finally got the Moodle page set up, which you can use to access the lecture recordings. URL is here: https://moodle.telt.unsw.edu.au/course/view.php?id=96573
The first set of weekly activities is also open, you can see them on ctfd - https://ctfd.quoccacorp.com/ - and the activity description is here: https://webcms3.cse.unsw.edu.au/COMP6443/26T1/resources/119469
Please get to a tutorial this week to get properly set up with mTLS and with Burp+Python as you will need it for the exercises this week.
If you have any questions or difficulties, start with a question on Discourse, or email the class account at cs6443@cse.unsw.edu.au.
