We are Pwn De Manila, we will be organizing this years ROOTCON CTF, a CTF organizing team born out of the love for CTFs.
We are just like you--inherently curious, highly competitive, and effortlessly pwnny--we have been long-time participants for the ROOTCON CTF. The only difference is that this time, we're the ones who will be running the show.
Proudly tracing our roots from way back ROOTCON X, Pwn De Manila is now committed to making intellectually-rewarding and painfully-meaningful CTF challenges that aim to meet ROOTCON's reputation and tradition of bringing organized chaos to con-goers every year.
Just like the team name, expect this year's CTF to be frustratingly witty and proudly Filipino.

ROOTCON is growing bigger, becoming more mature and better every year and has proved to be an organized chaos since its inception.
This year semprix and shipcode finally decided to start our very their Car Hacking Village. It's time to unleash the beast that was trapped in the abyss.
Automotive Security and Car Hacking have been in the spotlight for almost 4 years now.
More talks and research are geared towards it because it is the trend and we owe it to the Car Hacking Village and of course to Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek.
Cars have computers and technologies that hackers can tap into: wireless, key fobs, CAN Bus, telematics, electronic controllers, ECUs, secure gateways and the infotainment systems.

Talks submission is the heart of ROOTCON, selecting the best talks has never been an easy task. We are excited to announce our

ROOTCON would also like to thank everyone who submitted to the CFP this year, there were plenty of great talks! The CFP reviewboard worked so hard to come up with such an amazing line-up.
The two faces of tomorrow is near. Get stoked, Get hyped! The time of the year has come - where we meet, learn and have fun.
