The terminal on the left is a very nice touch. Looks like someone's hitting the DoD with a cybersec cluebat.

Nice looking, yes. Clue, not so much. It could be argued that they: - shouldn't be sitting with an open root shell - should use audited/logged sudo for root stuffs - use the full path to 'ls'

but I probably shouldn't get bogged down discussing a graphic on a website

I think the point was to look like the POV of a hacker having taken root on another box.

"Only teams with all team members being U.S. Citizens traveling from within the Continental U.S. can win the DC3 Forensics Challenge."

A forensics competition, managed by SANS.

Kids, if you're looking for an interesting and exciting career in information security, steer clear of forensics. Ask your friendly neighborhood pentester what "EnCase Jockey" means.

makes sense, enemies of the future are aiming to attack our connectivity in the field of battle( so we can't coordinate a war) and cyber attacks to steal information. Cough cough china.
