WHY HACK ON HACKWEEKDAY? 

  1. To promote and improve information security applications on the current available browsers
  2. Spark interest in security application development throughout the developer community.
    (developing web apps and developing security apps isn’t all that that different)
  3. Revive abandoned security projects and contribute back to the security community.
  4. Knowledge sharing directly from authoritative figures in the security community (HITB speakers and project owners)
  5. To seek & foster knowledge sharing amongst local hardware developers and their security applications for general
    use with the information security industry.

HACKATHON FORMAT

This event will be divided into two categories (10 slots each):-

  1. STUDENTS – Students from local Higher Education institutions. Entries can be on individual basis or in a group of 4 ( 3 students + 1 lecturer/mentor from their institution)
  2. PROFESSIONALS – Developers, enthusiasts and hackers from the industry. Entries can be on individual basis or in a group of 4.

    • Web Browsers – The functionality of a web browser (Firefox, Fennec, Chrome/Chromium, etc) by the means of either add-ons, plugins and/or custom build. This year’s theme for this category is ‘Social Media Security’.
    • Electronic and/or mechanical hardware-based projects using (but not limited to) arduino, RaspberryPi, Lego Mindstorm, etc.
    • Standalone and/or mobile (Android/IOS/J2ME/Symbian/etc) applications based on the decided theme that would benefit end-users in terms of security.
