Introduction
The Research Group IT-Security of the RWTH Aachen University and the associated 0ldEur0pe CTF team are proud to announce the second rwthCTF. rwthCTF 2012 will start on Friday, November 30, 1400/2pm (CET) and go on for twelve hours (until December 1, 0200/2am (CET)). The intended audience are teams from universities around the world, but we can make exceptions for verified other organisations or institutions. Registration is closed.
Requirements
CTF overview
In order to participate, you will need a stable and relatively fast
Internet connection (a few MBit/s in both directions are recommended).
Also you will need a computer which is able to host a VirtualBox PC,
i.e. a 64-bit host with VT-X technology. You will not need to
travel anywhere.
You should know how to run a VirtualBox instance, set up a shared
connection over an OpenVPN tunnel and know how to use PGP/GPG
correctly. We expect you to handle your side of the OpenVPN setup
yourself. Please make sure that you know who's responsible for the VPN
connection and the PGP keys on your team (we had some bad experiences
with this).
To get a rough idea of how a typical CTF network looks like, you can
have a look at a poster
we did about rwthCTF 2011. Feel free to post questions in our Google group or to
@mention us on Twitter
(hashtag #rwthctf). We will also be active in #rwthCTF on
irc.freenode.net.

Story
After all of the fun we had doing rwthCTF 2011, we decided to get together again and organize a second CTF challenge. Having learned from last year, we decided to change the style of the CTF a little bit. We hope it will still be as much fun and accessible to people with different skillsets.
