There is a company in Dallas that is literally putting their money where their mouth is this weekend to the tune of $100,000.  The company is SurMD and through Sunday they want to see if hackers can break into their server.

"We store healthcare data, which actually is the most prized sought after data that hackers want to get to" said Brian Krallis of SurMD.

The $100,000 Hackers Challenge is a calculated risk for the folks at SurMD. "Worst case scenario they get in, part of the rules of the contest is they have to explain to us how they did it" Brian added.

JD Ryan is Around Town with a weekend challenge that could put you in the green!
