DARPA's Cyber Grand Challenge Finals: Where Autonomous Computers Play DEFCON's Hacking Game
4 replies, posted
[quote]Today is the grand finals of DARPA’s Cyber Grand Challenge (CGC), where seven teams pit their technology against each other at the largest annual hacker conference in the world – DEF CON 24 – in Las Vegas. And the team with the best autonomous security tech will win $2 million.
The field of cybersecurity is currently dominated by human experts, who identify and remediate new flaws in security protocols and emerging threats as they emerge. However, discovering a new security flaw and successfully deploying a solution can take up to a year. Solving this slow reaction cycle is why DARPA created this challenge.
The CGC seeks to automate this cyber defense process, fielding the first generation of machines that can discover, prove and fix software flaws in real-time, without any assistance. If successful, the speed of autonomy could someday blunt the structural advantages of cyber offense.[/quote]

I have no idea what to expect as far as entertainment value of the stream goes.
I just think the idea of AI playing a hacking game for the first time, racing against each other to find and fix vulnerabilities in software sounds cool as hell.
Competition starts in about 20 minutes.

already fixed it. Apparently previewing a post removes [noparse][media][/noparse] tags or something.
This is the first step to skynet taking over the Internet, I love it
