Announcing the 11th Annual Flare-On Challenge https://ift.tt/ZvE2Asz Written by: Nick Harbour When it's pumpkin spice season, that means it's also Flare-On Challenge season. The Flare-On Challenge is a reverse engineering contest held every year by the FLARE team, and this marks its eleventh year running. It draws thousands of players from around the world every year, and is the foremost single-player CTF-style challenge for current and aspiring reverse engineers. It provides individual players with a gauntlet of increasingly challenging puzzles to test their ability, and earn a position in our hall of fame. Veteran competitors who have been following the live countdown over at flare-on.com may have already marked their calendar for the contest launch at 8:00pm ET on Sept. 27th, 2024. It will run for six weeks, ending at 8:00pm ET on Nov. 8th, 2024. The Flare-On contest always features a diverse array of architectures, but with a strong representation of Windows binaries. This year’s contest may be the most diverse ever, with 10 challenges covering architectures including Windows, Linux, JavaScript, .NET, YARA, UEFI, Verilog, and Web3. Yes, you read that correctly, there is a YARA challenge this year. The challenges are often designed to represent Reverse Engineering challenges the FLARE team has encountered on the frontlines of cybersecurity. If you successfully crush all 10 challenges you will be eligible to receive a prize, which will be revealed later. This crucial bit of gear will distinguish you from your colleagues who have not mastered the arcane art of Reverse Engineering, and will thus be an object of their envy. Your name or handle, should you choose to be included, will be permanently etched into the Hall of Fame on the Flare-On website.  Please check the Flare-On website for the live countdown and, upon launch, the link to the game server. Early account registration will open approximately two days before launch. While you’re there, check out last year’s challenges and official solutions to prepare yourself. For official news and information, we will be using the Twitter hashtag #flareon11. via Threat Intelligence https://ift.tt/ehOMwd0 September 13, 2024 at 10:00AM

The best ideas can come from anywhere and are never initially a perfect "fit" for all of the problems they grow to solve over time. This behind-the-scenes write-up by Werner illustrates beautifully how incremental investments and ongoing learnings can lead to great things. (I say this as an engineering leader over front-end apps and large-scale backends that have rarely taken advantage of AWS's Lambda feature. But, even when our requirements are not best met by a specific platform, studying and learning from them always pays rich dividends. We all stand on one another's shoulders!) Enjoy the write-up. It's worth your time.

🚀 Exciting news in the Rust and AWS communities! 🚀 On June 8th, Werner Vogels announced **distill CLI**, an efficient, Rust-powered tool for media summarization. 📜🔧 Check out his blog for more details: [Introducing Distill CLI](https://lnkd.in/dfUT4cmf) Notably, companies like Discord and Figma have achieved remarkable performance improvements by adopting Rust. Discord moved their Read States service from Go to Rust, resulting in a 10x speed increase and nearly 100x reduction in worst tail latencies. Similarly, Figma rewrote performance-sensitive parts of their multiplayer service in Rust, seeing a 6x reduction in peak average CPU usage per machine. 🌟💪 AWS is also embracing Rust with the general availability of Cargo support in CodeArtifact, enabling the storage of Rust libraries (crates) in CodeArtifact. 📦✨ More info: [AWS CodeArtifact and Cargo Support](https://lnkd.in/dYY_fgtU) As more customers leverage Rust for their critical workloads, AWS is providing robust building blocks. AWS Lambda, for instance, can now process HTTP events more efficiently with Rust. 🚀⚡️ Learn more here: [Rust HTTP Events in AWS Lambda](https://lnkd.in/diubf8bM) #RustLang #AWS #Serverless #Performance #CloudComputing #Innovation #TechNews #CodeArtifact #DistillCLI
