To keep the games interesting, and provide a bit of a educational anomaly, the Red Team had done what any criminal hacker would consider — they broke into the teams’ pods and installed backdoors. Using only the light from a glow stick (the hotel they were staying at didn't have any flashlights), they found a ladder, climbed up the outside of the room (12 foot ceilings), pulled back a drop ceiling tile, and climbed down a wooden rod they collected from nearby. With physical access granted, the Red Team went to town.
