We're so proud of FoxBox Dialing Services. They have won one of the most difficult contests at @defcon (which is designed to require a registered team's entire DEF CON to play) not once, but twice.
This year we won @telechallenge again!! I may revisit this thread I wrote last year and/or adapt it to mastodon, but for now here's some notes about how crazy this game is and why we love it so much.
I hope you'll play along with us next year!
Even though @defcon is over, the TeleChallenge is still running. This is the first time we have ever done this. Want to play? It's not too late to start! Current scoreboard: https://t.co/hFjuzSV90i

Phona IT would like to inform all employees that our new password policy is now being enforced across the board. Your compliance is appreciated. Thank you.
Our SAN administrator discovered that there was a LUN offline in the backup system. I would like to be clear that this is not Phona's fault, but the fault of our storage vendor. Please direct all complaints to JT Storage, Inc. and kindly try again.
We further recommend using carrier grade networks when calling the TeleChallenge. Phona services are not recommended, especially when purchased from Sal Buglazo.
TECH NOTE: Some players are using automated dialers which are dialing too fast. This may cause DTMF registration failure. We recommend using the Phone Qualification Tool to test your phones and ensure that your DTMF registration reliably occurs.

Phona has discovered a limited nature compromise by a sophisticated nation-state actor. We replaced all voicemails left by an imposter from a sanctioned country with those from a Phona employee. Note: Although it may be more clearly understandable, the content has not changed.
