Longitudinal days Washington: United States hacker Conference Defcon hacker speaking hackers Assembly invites children, genius, hacker-IT information
Lead: United States Science and technology website CNET today said Defcon hacker Conference specifically opened a children's activity section, even some children hack speech. While they are very young, but it has the potential to become the future of cyber security experts.
Following is the full text of the article:
Aimite·buluer (Emmett Brewer) is still not the podium high, so he could stand on the platform of the side speakers. The child with a "Dennis the Menace" hairstyle, although he is only 10 years old, but you can never underestimate him.
His speech entitled: hacking competitions. He showed the presence of other children how to make a capture the flag game (CTF) to impart new skills to partners, and exchange ideas, learn how to make software submit to their young but strong minded.
Yes, the room filled with children of hackers. Some of them have just elementary school, and some have high school, irrespective of their age, they all want to learn advanced hacking techniques.
"I like the hacker, sniffing, jailbreak, overflow--this is one of my favorites. "Emmett said to the people in the room.
This is the r00tz Asylum, that is, annual Defcon hacker Conference children's branch. It originally was a participant where children are free to play, but now it has developed into a separate plate, became an increasingly sophisticated hackers Conference on children.
In the Paris Resort's Ballroom, the children sat at the table unlocked and welded on either side of the circuit board. Another corner then held Emmett described the kind of hacking competitions. On the podium, speakers openly talked about the joy of hacking and risk.
"Do you want to learn more to unlock? "A woman asked, she took a kindergarten-age boys.
"No." "The boy replied vaguely, he went to the welding circuit board area.
Hacking the future
Meeting invitations this year more children like Emmett to come to lectures. His father qiaoer·buluer (Joel Brewer) use Facebook to design ready-made platform to mobilize his son's interest in the capture the flag hacking competition.
"This is very exciting, I'm a little nervous. "Emmett said after the speech last night, he would grade 4 in Austin this fall. Asked about other than computers, what course he likes, he replied: "in addition to the computer and the rest, nothing like it. "He is welding a circuit board that will eventually turn into one of the Simon says (Simon Says) video games.
Facebook in May of this year opened up its platform for capture the flag. Cyber security experts before Facebook guweier·makaosi (Javieer Marcos) that are in great demand from schools and other children's organizations, require engineers to give the appropriate combination.
If you're curious about why schools should teach children about hacking, and allow them to become future criminals, it obviously wants to be wrong. Of course, young people may be in trouble because of the illegal hacking, but Facebook wants to take this train up the future of network security experts.
"We start the capture the flag contest to find candidates. "Marcos said. Now, in addition to race calls for colleges and universities, they will help Utah and Idaho r00tz Asylum attended by many high school students to use their platform of capture the flag game.
Enthusiasm
14 students from Utah kangna·qiongsi (Conor Jones) was a great opportunity. When he received from the organizers of the Facebook phone, could hardly believe his ears.
"Facebook has called me, I was thrilled. "He said," this is so cool. ”
He and other people involved in the project have used half a summer time involved in hacking competitions. Connor enjoyed the event from start to finish, he gets up at 8 o'clock in the morning every day and sit in a rocking chair to participate in different aspects of the competition.
He thought he would work in network security industry in the future. "I hope can learn new things every day. "He said.
Impact
After the speech of children, Internet security experts Dan·kamingsiji (Dan Kaminsky) speech. Just 4 days ago, also at the Black Hat Conference to a room full of adult Internet security experts gave a speech now, sitting in front of him is a group of innocent children.
"Courageously forward, overwhelming. "He said to the people in the room," is how I got here. ”
But, he said, not just want to hack. Software has been affecting every aspect of people's lives, so finding out problems of computer code, and how the action is the key.
"You can make the world a better place. "He says, speaking almost pleased by the children lock, welding software attacks and masked by noise.
天纵奇才：美国黑客大会Defcon邀请儿童黑客演讲 - 黑客大会,天才,黑客 - IT资讯
导语：美国科技网站CNET今天撰文称，Defcon黑客大会专门开辟了儿童活动板块，甚至让一些儿童黑客进行演讲。虽然他们年纪很小，但却很有潜力成为未来的网络安全专家。
以下为文章全文：
艾米特·布鲁尔（Emmett Brewer）的个子还没有讲台高，所以，他要站在讲台的侧面发表演讲。这个孩子留着一个“淘气阿丹”的发型，虽然他今年只有10岁，但你可千万不要小看他。
他今天演讲的题目是：黑客竞赛。他向在场的其他孩子展示了如何进行一次夺旗赛（CTF），以便向伙伴们传授各种新技能，并相互交换想法，了解如何让一款软件屈服于他们幼小但又强大的头脑。
没错，这个房间里坐满了儿童黑客。他们有的刚刚上小学，有的已经上中学，但无论年龄如何，他们都希望学习先进的黑客技术。
“我喜欢黑客、嗅探、越狱、溢出——这都是我的最爱。”艾米特对房间里的人说。
这是r00tz Asylum，也就是一年一度的Defcon黑客大会儿童分会。它最初是一个让与会者的孩子可以随意玩耍的地方，但现在却发展成为独立的板块，成为了一个日渐成熟的儿童黑客会议。
在Paris Resort的宴会厅里，孩子们坐在桌子的两旁学习开锁和焊接电路板。另一个角落里则在举行一场艾米特描述的那种黑客竞赛。而在讲台上，演讲者则开诚布公地谈论着黑客活动中的乐趣和风险。
“你想多学点开锁吗？”一位女士问道，她带着一个幼儿园年纪的男孩儿。
“不。”男孩儿模糊地回答道，他走到了焊接电路板的区域。
黑客未来
今年的会议邀请了更多像艾米特这样的儿童前来演讲。他的父亲乔尔·布鲁尔（Joel Brewer）使用Facebook设计的现成平台调动了儿子对夺旗黑客竞赛的兴趣。
“这很刺激，我有点紧张。”艾米特昨晚演讲后说，他今年秋天就要在奥斯汀上4年级了。在被问及除了电脑之外，他还喜欢哪些课程时，他回答道：“除了电脑和休息，什么都不喜欢。”他现在正在焊接一个电路板，最终将变成一款《西蒙说》（Simon Says）电子游戏。
Facebook今年5月对外开放了它的夺旗平台。Facebook前网络安全专家贾维尔·马考斯（Javieer Marcos）表示，来自学校和其他儿童组织的需求量很大，需要工程师给予相应的配合。
如果你好奇学校为什么要教给孩子黑客技术，让他们成为未来的犯罪分子，那你显然想错了。诚然，年轻人可能因为非法黑客活动而陷入麻烦，但Facebook希望能够借此训练出未来的网络安全专家。
“我们开始通过这些夺旗竞赛寻找候选人。”马考斯说。现在，除了呼吁高等院校举行竞赛外，他们还会帮助犹他州和爱达荷州的很多高中生使用他们的平台参加r00tz Asylum夺旗赛。
热情高涨
来自犹他州的14岁初三学生康纳·琼斯（Conor Jones）就从中获得了巨大机会。当他接到了来自Facebook组织者的电话时，简直不敢相信自己的耳朵。
“Facebook给我打电话了，我真是兴奋极了。”他说，“这太酷了。”
他和其他参与该项目的人利用半个暑假的时间参与了黑客竞赛。康纳自始至终都很喜欢这次活动，他每天早晨8点起床，然后坐在摇椅上参加竞赛的不同环节。
他认为自己今后会就职于网络安全行业。“我希望每天都能学到新东西。”他说。
产生影响
在儿童演讲结束后，网络安全专家丹·卡明斯基（Dan Kaminsky）上台讲话。短短4天前，他还在Black Hat大会上对着满屋子的成年网络安全专家发表演讲，现在，坐在他面前的却是一群懵懂的儿童。
“奋勇直前，所向披靡。”他对房间里的人说，“我就是这样走到今天的。”
但他也表示，不能一心只想着黑客技术。软件已经影响到人们生活的方方面面，所以发现电脑代码的问题后，如何行动才是关键所在。
“你们完全可以把世界变得更美好。”他总结道，这番讲话几乎被孩子们高兴地开锁、焊接和发动软件攻击的噪音所掩盖。
