Only the most resolute of hackers will prevail and win a job and a free lap dance, reports the Sun.

Footage of the competition shows some hackers totally ignoring the strippers while focussing on their screens.

Others, however, couldn't help but liaise with the beautiful women.

The competition comes after the CIA claimed that hacks on Democratic email accounts were made to help Donald Trump win the US presidency.

Trump denied the claims, saying 'I think it's ridiculous. I think it's just another excuse.'

I don't believe it,' he said during an interview with Fox News Sunday.

'I don't know why and I think it's just - you know, they talked about all sorts of things. Every week it's another excuse.'

He went on to blame Democrats for putting out reports about the CIA's remarks, made after a secret assessment of Russia's role in the mid-election cyber attacks on the DNC and Clinton campaign chair John Podesta.
