The NotSoSecure 2nd CTF Challenge hit by DDoS

The 2nd CTF organised by NotSoSecure.com from the 18th to 20th of April was hit with a DNS Amplification DDoS attack midway through the event. Contestant voiced out on twitter but it took some hours to get everything back under control.



Despite the DDoS, the organisers hailed the event as a successful one, though a lot of contestants were stuck at the 2nd flag even with hints from @notsosecure.
