Black Hat 2018 is now over, and the winners of the Pwnie Awards have been published. The Best Client-Side Bug was awarded to Georgi Geshev and Rob Miller for their work called “The 12 Logic Bug Gifts of Christmas.”

Pwnies2018 The Pwnie Awards

Georgi and Rob work for MWR Infosecurity, which (as some of you might remember) was acquired by F-Secure earlier this year. Both MWR and F-Secure have a long history of geek culture. One thing we’ve done for years, is to take our trophies (or “Poikas”) for a trip around the town.

So, while the Pwnie is still here in Helsinki before going home to UK, we took it around the town!

P.S. If you’re wondering about the word “Poika” we use for trophies, here’s a short documentary video that explains it in great detail.
