A competition offering participants a chance to decipher the code and discover the password to win – Participants can visit the PandaLabs blog, www.pandalabs.com, to register

Panda Security, the Cloud Security Company, announced the global launch of the Panda Challenge, a competition offering participants a chance to decipher codes of three levels of increasing difficulty to discover a hidden password inside. The competition, originally launched in Spain, initially received more than 800 entrants, yet went unresolved because no one was able to overcome all three levels of the challenge. As a result, Panda Security is launching the competition internationally to find a victor. More details on the competition can be found on the PandaLabs blog at http://www.pandalabs.com/.

So, what does the Panda Challenge involve? PandaLabs gives participants three code files – each of them more difficult than the previous one – that ask for a password. Users have to dissemble the code to find the password and then can send their answer via email to: pandachallenge@pandasecurity.com.

The first code will be available on July 7, and users will have one week to discover the password. The second code will be delivered on July 14 and the third on July 21. The winner of each level will be the first person who sends the correct answer to Panda.

Each winner will receive the following prize:

Level 1: A $150 Amazon gift certificate
Level 2: A $250 Amazon gift certificate
Level 3: A $450 Amazon gift certificate

The first five participants to send a correct answer for each level will receive a Panda Security antivirus solution.
