Crack Mossad's Code, Join Mossad's Hacking Dept.

Mossad continues its recruiting tradition for its cyberspace operations. The Institute for Intelligence and Special Assignments has published a problem on the website r-u-ready.xyz calling on anyone who is interested to solve it and possibly be accepted into a prestigious line of work in the service of Israel's clandestine intelligence organization.

In 2016, the Mossad started the tradition and the number of responses was overwhelming. It was therefore decided that this constitutes an effective recruiting tool. So, without any further ado, here is the Mossad 2018 riddle:

+[--------->++< ]>+.++[->+++< ]>++.+[--->+< ]>.+[->+++< ]>.--[--->+< ]>-.---[->++++< ]>.------------.---.--[--->+< ]>-.+[->+++< ]>+.---.--[--->+< ]>-.+++[->+++< ]>.--[--->+< ]>.

We fed it to Google Translate and received this:

+ [---------> ++ <]> +. ++ [-> +++ <]> ++. [+> + <]>. + [-> ++ + <]> .-- [---> + <]> -.--- [-> ++++ <]>. ------------. --- .- User Name Remember Me? Password FAQ Members List Calendar Mark Forums Read +] [+] [+] [+] <]> .-- [---> + <]>.

We fed it to Google Search and were directed to a long list of online Morse Code translators. One of them gave us this solution:

0OT>++<]>+E++[T>+++<]>++E+[O>+<]>E+[T>+++<]>W[O>+<]>YT[T>++++<]>10ÖÖM[O>+<]>N+[T>+++<]>+JW[O>+<]>N+++[T>+++<]>W[O>+<]>E

Then we fed the line "Solve this riddle and join Mossad" into another Morse Code translator and received this line:

... --- .-.. ...- . / - .... .. ... / .-. .. -.. -.. .-.. . / .- -. -.. / .--- --- .. -. / -- --- ... ... .- -..

As of Wednesday morning Israel time, there are seven and a half days remaining to send in your answer. The solution will likely be a URL, where the real test will begin. We failed phase one. We are not the clandestine type.
