The Student vs Hacker Security Showdown Rematch

During the three day event, small teams from eight of the areas colleges are handed insecure networks that they have to lockdown and keep running — all while a team of hackers attempt to gain access any way they can. To keep it interesting, the teams also had to perform various tasks, such as program web applications, install IDS systems and more.

This sounds like a ton of fun, but I could imagine the stress to come along with it at else. It’s like real life IT/IS taken to a new level.
