Do I need to be studying a cyber-related degree?
Yes. As this is a technical CTF, you’ll need to be currently studying cybersecurity or a cyber-adjacent degree, such as computer science, information technology, software engineering, networking, or a similar technical field.
Why do you ask for my gender?
We ask for this information to help us understand the mix of participants and support fair representation across the event. If you don’t feel comfortable sharing your gender, that’s completely fine , simply select “Other / Prefer not to say".
Can I use AI?
Use of AI is ok, but running an agent to run it for you is not.
