ESIB rally paper online challenges
 

hello,
The ESIB rally paper online challenges are not necessarily all related to hacking. Some are more like the steganography challenge (maybe a bit harder), and others will require you to know a bit about encryption algorithms. Finally, sometimes u might not even know were to start/what to look for, and that's part of the challenge.
If you're not participating in the rally, then u wouldn't mind posting ur thoughts/solutions about them...
there are 5 of them. u can find them here: http://www.esibrallypaper.com/Index....nlinechalenges
have fun...

copy the text to notepad and then change the font to 1 ... it will appear the word of OMEGA :p

Thank You ...

i tried zooming out using word, but nothing was obvious:P

okey hayda elli toli3 minne till now :
- Blur : answer is OMEGA as described above
- 22 : answer is 50310975243 (you have to save the pic and then change the format to txt ... you'll have many solutions, check the number 22)
- Sound Challenge : No idea
- DES algorithm : don't know what the hell DES means
- Decipher :
Iwxh epgpvgpew lph tcrgneits lxiw p qphxr pavdgxiwb iwpi rdchxhih dc hxbean gdipixcv paewpcjbtgxr rwpgpritgh.
--------------------------------------------------------
Iwt hdajixdc ldjas qt iwt aphi ldgs du iwxh tcrgneits epgpvgpew
--------------------------------------------------------
stands for :

This paragraph has encrypted with a basic algorithm that consists on simply rotating alphanumeric characters
--------------------------------------------------------
the solution would be the last word of this encrypted paragraph
--------------------------------------------------------

Hope that helped

Thank You ...

Re: ESIB rally paper online challenges
 

the first 2 i did them
and the last one, all i knew was that I should change the P to A

can you describe keef the decryption sar?

Re: ESIB rally paper online challenges
 

The most common 3 letters word in english is "The" so search for it first ...
iwt : at the beginning of a sentence should be a "The"
so :
i --> t
w --> h
t --> e
and you already established p --> a

lxiw --> **th (both or with, ...)
and so on .....

P.S : in the text i wrote "This paragraph has encrypted .... " it should be "This paragraph was encrypted ..." i just noticed it :p (although later on i used l for w)

Thank You ...
