Th<\/span>e <\/span>Mozilla <\/span>security team <\/span>was<\/span> proud to<\/span> be <\/span>part of Hack In The Box (HITB) 2014, held from 15-16 October 2014 in Kuala Lumpur<\/span> (KL)<\/span>, Malaysia. <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"IMG_5648\"<\/a><\/span>Mozilla has<\/span> been involved in HITB for several years now, a<\/span>nd this year<\/span>‘s<\/span> HackWEEKDAY contest <\/span>was probably the best we’ve seen so far. HackWE<\/span>E<\/span>KDAY is a contest <\/span>where contestants <\/span>d<\/span>e<\/span>velop<\/span> mobile <\/span>apps<\/span> (Firefox OS or any other platforms allowed)<\/span> in a bid to win <\/span>glory and <\/span>prizes.<\/span> The competition was fierce this year, with over 75 developers and 4 hours of judging!<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/div>\n

\"IMG_5750\"<\/a><\/span>Notable entries included a Firefox extension which used <\/span>S<\/span>nort rules to block browser exploit attempts, a heat-activated mobile app to advise restaurant customers when the chef was cooking, and whole range of lock-screen apps –\u00a0 from Morse code to facial recognition.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Mozilla also ran a<\/span> booth<\/span> promoting Firefox OS & WebMaker projects<\/span> and the turnout was <\/span>very encouraging<\/span>. There was plenty of interest in Firefox OS phones, and thanks to the ground work from local community we had a constant stream of web maker experiments completed throughout the course of the conference (in exchange for T-shirts and goodies, of course!)

Big thanks to the<\/span> Mozilla Malaysia community <\/span>–<\/span> Syafiq, Nasrun, Neo, Shah – among others for helping to make this a wonderful success<\/span>, and being such gracious hosts (cendol durian, yum!) <\/span>It’s sad<\/span> that it<\/span>‘<\/span>s the end an era for HITB KL, but looking forward to continue being a part of HITB N<\/a><\/span>etherlands<\/span><\/a>, and their new GSEC format events.<\/span><\/div>\n
