if you have a look at the jury, you see some guy from Computer Bild. This is a
magazine for the broad mass and the everyday computer user (who is impressed by
registry tricks and free software)..
Computer Bild is not that known for very in-depth security knowledge. I mean,
if you have a sophisticated security question, Computer Bild is like the last
place to look for.
If they had at least choosen someone from Heise Security or Chaos Computer Club
(i don't like their attitude but they have some competent members). These two
are known for dealing with security every day.
So then why Computer Bild ?
Computer Bild is a part of the Springer press, which is the most powerful
publishing company here in Germany.

If they write "it's good", everybody will believe that. And they have a lot of
mediums to propagate that information in "the right way", even if they are
wrong ( Nice German site publishing all errors by Bild http://www.bildblog.de/
;-)
I really don't want to presume something but it's somehow obvious.

Betreff: Re: [Full-disclosure] Deutsche Post Security Cup 2013
IMHO the goal here is not to find many vulns, it is to find none and therefore
"prove" that the product is secure. The E-POST product is highly questioned in
Germany, because it is sold as secure encrypted email service, although the
security is only between server and client. The server unencrypts the mail and
virus checks it or whatever else. I think I don't need to comment any further,
just corelate those two facts.

Most of the subscribers are single individuals. Why bother sending them a
invitaton when 99.9% are rejected because they dont have a "company" or a "big
team". There a lot of valuable and competent individuals out there which are
rejected because of their team size in the first place. Don't be so
closed-minded, most freaks dont have friends and/or a cr3w.
