Root This Box is a live hacking challenge where users can practice their attack and defence skills on machines set up for free range hacking. People form teams with other users and compete against other teams for control over these machines. When a machine is taken over, the team can put up a message and try to defend the machine against other attacking teams.

I wanted to know if anybody wanted to play this with me. Its not a game, its actually hacking, so if you think your up to the challenge, then post a reply below.

These are no missions my friend. This is real time hacking, but the web servers are for this use only so we wont get caught be the authorities, etc......

But from the looks of it, even though its part of that site, its not mission based. Its a team based game where you attack and defend. He did know what he was talking about ;)

Lemme make this clear, Root This Box is a side project that HTS has been working on quite some time, along with their e-zine and their radio. HTS is a mission based hacking wargame site. RTB is a mere subdomain of the site.
