Congratulations to Samee Zahur for winning the iDash Secure Genomics competition (Hamming Distance challenge task), sponsored by Human Longevity, Inc. A video of the event is available at http://www.humangenomeprivacy.org/.
Samee’s solution was built using Obliv-C, and the code will be posted soon.
I’m a judge for the Deutsche Post “Security Cup” contest being organized by our former student, Karsten Nohl. The goal of the contest is to incentivize enterprising students and practitioners to bash on the Deutsche Post’s E-Postbrief web application. They are offering some fairly significant prizes (up to 5,000 Euro per bug) to teams that identify vulnerabilities in their application, as well as providing up-front funding to qualified teams that enter the contest.
