This was the second time the Viettel Cyber Security Company attended the contest affirming its leading role in the field of information security in Vietnam while learning experience from foreign experts. ZDI described this year’s event as one of the largest in Pwn2Own history, with 23 separate entries targeting ten different products in the categories of Web Browers, Virtualisation, Servers, Local Escalation of Privilege, and Enterprise Communications.

The contest aimed to detect security vulnerabilities in smart devices so that manufacturers can immediately fix them, thus helping to keep client information safe.
