Welcome to Tiger Trap 2010
Tiger Trap is annual Louisiana Infragard sponsored 'Capture the Flag' cybersecurity event designed as an information sharing and hands-on learning opportunity for business, university, state & local government, law enforcement and defense agencies. Participants are vetted by the FBI and come from the information security field and technology specialties such as cyberwarfare, systems & network management, computer programming, intrusion & incident management, digital forensics, penetration testing, IT auditing, & communications security, to engage in this real-world hack and defend exercise.
How does it work?
Each annual event simulates current cyber-warfare and cyber-crime scenarios which threaten critical cyber assets, information & infrastructure security. The Attack (Red) teams seek to breach target systems constructed by (White Team) subject matter experts in an effort to hijack & control critical systems or steal sensitive information, while the defense (Blue) teams attempt to actively defend the network, determine if breach(s) have occurred and counter-attack the Red Team. The annual TigerTrap learning exercise concludes with classroom instruction by the White Team and round-table discussion on the successful tools & techniques to use and pitfalls to avoid in real world computing environments.
Infragard member institutions typically face many similar cybersecurity challenges. Tiger Trap enables our member cyber security professionals to collaborate with other peers and subject matter on experts on effective cybersecurity tools, techniques & resources at no cost.
