Administrator DKT27 Posted August 17, 2011 Administrator Share Posted August 17, 2011 Sometimes hacking is about money; other times, it's about competition, and when that happens, it is also about getting a little credit.Enter RankMyHack.com. The site is described as the world's "first elite hacker ranking system", and invites people to submit proof of their Website hacks in exchange for points - the higher the points, the higher the place on the leader board. "So far more than 1000 sites were hacked in this competition – including very high profile ones," blogged Rob Rachwald, director of security strategy at Imperva. "How do hackers get ranked? They need to prove they have indeed hacked a site – by inserting a predetermined text into the hacked site page," Rachwald continued. "Rankmyhack scans for that text in the page – and gives score based on how popular the website is. Lower points are awarded for XSS attacks." There's also a 'Duel' mode where hackers can compete against each other in hacking as many sites as possible in a given time, and there are bonus points for hacking racist or edu, mil, gov sites. Hackers can also check how many points hacking a site is worth by typing in a URL. Assuming the site is real – and early reports indicate that it is – hackers can now see where their hacks stack up against those of their peers. Will this morph into a playground for hacktivists to hone their skills? Only time will tell. View: Original Article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
