So would this be an authorization to access their network, or is it an attempt to troll for hackers to prosecute as an example to the public?

So what is the IP/URL of the box that he wants hacked?
I don't see it mentioned anywhere.
Hackme School District
There is enough information in the article to get started. If you can't figure it out, maybe you should go back to the books instead of entertaining these ideas....
PLEEEZ!
Come on LaRock.....a router is nothing, I won't blink my eye for less than $100 an hour and you want to try to tempt us with a lowzy $50 router??! No thanks...
PLEEZ! and Hackme
This was only announced with students in mind. Then we realized that the world could take a crack at it. Offering small potatoes we knew wouldn't attract you pros. It's like a free penetration test without the documentation or coordination. It's also a lesson in ethics we're stressing to the students. How to put their skills to good use and avoid disgrace and fines or worse in the future. I appreciate your comments and we'll always respond if you can share new veneralbilities and techniques in the guise of education.
Hack this school network, win a router
I'm glad to see that a school district is protecting itself along with training students. No matter what the prize is, it's still a nice little challenge.
