h1-415 CTF Winners Announced!

Hello hackers! 

Thanks to all of you who participated in our #h1415 CTF!  We had a lot of fun building it, and it looks like many of you had a great time participating. As promised, our two winners will be sent to San Francisco for our live hacking event, h1-415! The first five participants who found the flag and submitted a valid write-up will receive a care package including a HackerOne hoodie!

On January 15 at approximately 13:37 PM, our co-founder, Jobert Abma lost access to his account, so we asked our community of hackers to give us a hand in recovering our top-secret documents. Here’s how it went down: 

h1-415 CTF activity

• The first submission came in about 24 hours and five minutes after the initial launch

• Total number of chat messages: 25208
• Unique IP addresses: 6349
• Accessed Jobert's account (account takeover): 35 people

...and of course, it’s not a CTF unless somebody finds an unintended solution:
