Evaluation Criteria

Applications will be evaluated by a panel of honored industry experts, specialists from top Russian companies. They will pay attention to the completeness of the narrative, description of the context and introductory, exploitation examples, and proofs of vulnerabilities.

Rewarding

The organizers of the Pentest Awards want to recognize those who make high demands on themselves and their work. The winners will be announced at the awards ceremony. For the first place in each of the six nominations, a MacBook will be presented, for the second – an iPhone, for the third – an Apple Watch. This became possible thanks to the sponsor of the project, Veles, an information security consulting company.

Thanks to the partners of the award, all first places will additionally receive free tickets to the OFFZONE conference and branded merch. All second places are grants for teaching any CyberED courses and school branded backpacks.

Awillix created a limited NFT collection for all the prizes: 18 unique images that can be sold or kept for years to become the owner of the unique trophy of the oldest pentest award in Russia in the future. There will also be analogue awards – the winners will take away exclusive figurines in the form of the project’s panther mascot.
