"Minimum 4-Year Bachelor of Science Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent from a "top ten" institution."

Coming off a bit elitist on your career page.


Nice challenges you guys have put up. Now I am addicted to ROTA.

I googled meaning of name of your company, really apt name for a security company (if anyone wondering, here's the wiki page - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Praetorian_Guard)


It's debatable. A lot of the emperors the praetorians were charged with protecting ended up dead, whether assassinated, sometimes by the praetorians themselves, or on the battlefield. That's not an institution which left a reputation of trustworthiness behind :)


Your /challenges stuff is really cool.

Is it okay with you guys if I still play but don't want a job?


Glad you like them! Feel free to play around even if you are not interested. If you do successfully beat them, shooting us an email to say how you beat them is always a fun read. Good luck!
