Introduction
Currently, there is one challenge, the OWASP TopTen with currently 1164 registered users and +500 solutions send in and verified by the OWASP teachers! The goal is to provide an open and transparent process about the challenges, the teachers and continuously working on extending the available challenges.

=FAQs=

Communication

 * Always be polite
 * Never ever be unpolite. No matter what comment or question you receive!
 * You are OWASP's interface, behave mature and polite.
 * Comment in positive phrasing
 * E.g. if partially scored has been achieved, congratulate them
 * If the solution contains a good write-up, let them know you appreciate!
 * If they thank you for the event, return the favor e.g. thanks for contributing
 * Teaching and mentoring
 * If a previous suggestion is not understand, try to rephrase
 * No abusive language is permitted
 * If you receive any in a solution, don't 'hit back'
 * See what is causing the frustration, see if you can help is, let Ivan or Martin know

Rating:

 * Understanding the vulnerability is essential
 * If a solution describes the vulnerability, this does scores points.


 * Mitigation scores higher than hacking:
 * We are training security awareness! If mitigation is asked as part of the solution, this scores higher then exploitation
 * Exploiting is essential
 * The exploit has to be proven, but a solution that describes the exploit detailed, this is fine too!
 * Give points when possible
 * If not the complete answer has been supplied, give partial points when possible.
 * Only reject if:
 * there is no solution (e.g. a question asked by the student)
 * the solution is answering the wrong challenge
 * the vulnerability / exploit / mitigation has clearly not been understood


 * Rating example:
 * If you have 10 points to give this is how to divide them:
 * 3 Points for vulnerability description
 * 3 Points for proven exploit
 * 4 Points for complete mitigation description
