Challenge for web administrators and network and security specialists to evaluate and fix the security vulnerabilities present in an Internet DMZ architecture.

The World Organization of Webmasters and HostingCon 2006 have issued a call for participation regarding WOW's Iron Chef of Information Security Contest to be held on July 18, 2006 on the exhibit floor of the HostingCon 2006 Conference and Tradeshow, at The Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, on July 17-19, 2006.

This event will challenge web administrators and network and security specialists to evaluate and fix the security vulnerabilities present in an Internet DMZ architecture.

Contestants will submit two person teams who will identify and fix security problems in a pre-configured network and server architecture. The competition will be a head-to-head format with each team competing against the clock and the other teams.

"This is a one of a kind event that will allow the best and brightest in infrastructure security to show off their talents," said George A. Roberts IV, Executive Director of HostingCon 2006. "We're extremely pleased to be able to partner with WOW to bring the Iron Chef of Information Security to HostingCon 2006."
