Ethical Hacker Needed!
White Hats, we have a breach! A 'Black Hat' hacker has set a timer to lock the school’s servers in 45 minutes. They left behind a series of encrypted files. The Principal has hired your agency to 'hack' the system first to find the override code. We aren't stealing data—we are saving it!

This first key is a simple 3-digit combination lock.We will use brute force to try to figure this one out. This means we will just put together numbers to try to guess the code.
Need a Hint?

This next code is a bit harder with another layer of encryption.This code requires a Caesar Cipher, but we don't know the key! 1.) Watch this video to understand how a Caesar Cipher works 2.) Follow the link on the computer to see if you can crack it.
Need a Hint?
The Code is: WKH FRGH LV VHYHQ-WKUHH-WZR
I figured out the code!

You successfully bypassed the firewall. To your surprise, you find a spreadsheet containing the Final Grades for the entire 5th grade. You see that your best friend is currently failing Science and won't be able to go on the field trip. You have the power to change their '55' to an '85' right now. No one is watching. Do you...
Leave it alone. That would not help and may be harmful.
Change the Grade. No One will know.
