Admission:

You have to enroll to the exam of "MOBILE AND IOT SECURITY" available on Uniweb.

  Place:

All the exams from the Summer session will be hold online through Zoom. Be sure you have installed the tools we used during the lessons on your machines to be able to face the exam. Students having strong motivations for doing the exam physically at the Department of Mathematics are required to send an email to explain the motivation for such request.

  Time:

There will be four exams during the Summer:
• June, 29th 9.30-11.30
• July, 16th 9.30-11.30
• August, 25th 14.30-16.30
• September, 9th 9.30-11.30

  Exam assignments distribution:

The exam assignments will be distributed through Moodle at the start of the exam (please, make sure you have access to the Moodle platform).

  Exam execution:

Once read the assignments, you can start working on the challenge with the purpose of finding the flag. During the exam, you will not be allowed to access to any material besides the official Android documentation.

  Solution submission:

As soon as you find the flag, you will have to upload it on Moodle, together with the source code of the app you developed to solve the challenge. We consider a challenge solved only if you found the flag and you submitted it on Moodle. Don't forget to upload the flag, otherwise you will be given zero points!

  Hints:

During the exam, on Moodle you will find 4 hints. If you open one or more hints, you will loose points according to the following criterion: each hint has a different weight and you will loose a number of points equal to the highest hint you open. In particular, the first hint counts 3 points, the second 6 points, the third 9 points and the fourth 12 points.
Some examples:
The challenge has 30 points and you open ONLY the first hint --> the maximum final score you can get for that challenge is 27.
The challenge has 30 points and you open ONLY the third hint --> the maximum final score you can get for that challenge is 21.
The challenge has 30 points and you open the second and the fourth hints --> the maximum final score you can get for that challenge is 18.
Hints are helpful for finding the flag, but will make you loose points. Use them carefully!

  Final evaluation:

Your exam will be evaluated only considering the submitted flag and the number of hints opened for the challenge.
The final score will be calculated as follows:
Final_score = (30) - (weight_of_highest_opened_hint_of__chall)
