As mentioned earlier this week, we have extended the deadline for the 2014
Volatility Plugin Contest until October 1st because an organization wanted
to augment the prizes. We are excited to share that due to an extremely
generous donation from Facebook, the total cash prizes have been doubled
from $2250 USD to $4500 USD!
If you have already submitted to the contest, you can use this extra time
to fine tune your submission or submit another entry to improve your
chances. If you were considering submitting, you now have an extra month
to demonstrate your creativity, become a memory analysis pioneer, win the
admiration of your peers, and give back to the community!
It’s great to see some of the largest companies in the world showing their
support for and giving back to the memory forensics community! Thank you,
Facebook, and good luck to all participants in the contest - the stakes
have literally just doubled!
