As many of you know, during the month of May the Honeynet
Project sponsored the Reverse Challenge, a contest amongst
the security community to reverse, analyze, and document
a malicious binary found in the wild.

We received a total of 35 submissions for the Challenge.
Many of the submissions were more detailed then expected,
requiring extensive work to review and judge.  As a result,
we will be announcing the winners on Monday, 08 July.  One
of the prizes is a free pass to BlackHat Briefings.  The
winner of that prize can choose to go this year or next.

Meanwhile, the Project has released its own information on
the binary.  You can learn what the binary does, and how we
discovered it, at

Thanks!
