> Hello! My name is Patrick Turvin, director for the 2012 Community College
> Cyber Defense Competition, a cyber defense exercise for Iowa community
> college students. You are being contacted because you've either previously
> expressed interest in our competitions, or you were recommended to us as
> someone who could potentially benefit the competition.
> 
> For this event, students form "Blue Teams" with other students in their
> school and construct computer networks running various services. This year,
> these students will be required to run a web server, shell server, RDP
> server, and a comprehensive backup system. This event gives students a
> great opportunity to expand their knowledge, gain practical experience, and
> network with professionals like yourselves.
> 
> I'd like to invite you to be part of our "Red Team" for the competition.
> The Red Team's job is to analyze, attack, and penetrate into these
> student-constructed networks. Two PDF documents are attached which describe
> this year's rules and scenario for these student teams; these documents
> also describe your role as a Red Team member, should you accept this
> invitation to attend.
> 
> The event will be held *Saturday, Dec. 1st* from 8:00am-5:30pm in Coover
> Hall (please note the location change), located on Iowa State University's
> campus in Ames, Iowa.  Please enter the building from the front, which is
> behind a stone sculpture and denoted by a sign bearing the text "ECpE
> Addition".  Signs will be posted inside the entrance to direct you
> appropriately.

> 
> Free parking is available in a dedicated parking lot west of the building,
> right behind the Biorenewables Research Laboratory.  See the map for
> details.
> 
> Food and drink will be provided free of charge. You are highly encouraged
> to bring your own laptop or desktop computer, as our mid-level and high-end
> computer resources are somewhat limited. Should you bring your own system,
> we will provide surge protectors, extra monitors, and cabling for you. If
> this is not preferable, we can provide a desktop pre-loaded with BackTrack
> 5 upon request.
> 
> If you plan to attend, please reply to me as soon as possible, and no later
> than Wednesday, November 28th. If you are not bringing your own computer
> and you need us to provide one for you, please specify this in your reply.
