I am not going to show you how to break WEP or WPA. What I will do is share with you the fun and funny stories from the perspective of a WCTF competitor. I will explain the tools, tricks, equipment and techniques I used to score a few points and make a few friends while participating in the WCTF. The WCTF organizers are an amazing group of people who put on a challenging and fun event. The flags will truly test your skills, patience, and help you learn tons of cool things. Don't come to this talk if you are looking for a step by step guide on how to win. I have to keep a few secrets to myself. Come because you are curious about the Wireless CTF, you want to learn from my many mistakes, and hear why naming the WIFI fox FOXY can lead to shenanigans.

- ISSE, LEAD at CACI
A 15 year IT goon with the last 6 years focused on INFOSEC. Primarily an ISSE/ISSO for various Companies doing Systems Security and Compliance. Wireless Security has become his primary focus while not being his primary job. He has participated in WCTF at multiple conferences for the past four years. As a team and individually he has won the WCTF at four conferences. After sneaking out of his first WCTF hoping no one saw he was there after showing up unprepared and completely failing to a guy crazy about getting more flags he has plenty to share with anyone willing to learn. With a great interest in emerging wireless capabilities such as the Internet of Things his hopes are to take over your fridge and pour ice all over your kitchen floor. Does anyone really read these things? Maybe not. Hail Hydra
