A very sexy area of computing is the 'hacking' and 'security/application exploitation'. When done in a non malicious way, hacking an application is the best way to learn about programming
Ideas for hacking challenges:
Login into without needing password
Find the Solution for 'find the number'
Transfer money from one account into another
Logout user from Website A, by visiting page on Website B
Crack an encrypted message created by
** Simple cyphers (Letter substitution)
** Algorithm (ie algebra)
** Enigma machine
Modify web pages content
** adding new logos
** enabling disabled links or buttons
** revealing hidden fields
In the computing industry, Capture the flag are social events that present challenges (like the ones listed above) to teams in a competition where the winner is the team with the most flags. Here is a list of Practice CTF List / Permanant CTF List
We can use vulnerable by design applications like:
