Capture-the-Flag
Capture The Flag (CTF) is back for BSides Canberra in 2017, and why on earth shouldn’t it be? What kind of hacker con doesn’t have hacking?!
You’ll come into contact with a range of challenges from all disciplines of the hax0r perspective - some reversing, forensics, crypto, wireless, programming, binary, and of course web. We’ve also got physical and IoT challenges this year, and a shiny 0-day awaits you as part of the “Mr Robot Returns” storyline (assuming no-one else has already found it by now!).
The BSides Canberra CTF has been specifically designed for participants of all skill levels. Ranging from “lemon squeezy” easy to “rage quitting” difficult, there is one absolute certainty - you WILL walk away having learnt something new.
Go it alone, team up with some friends or choose to be magically matched with another random player via our state-of-the-art CTF Player Linking System* and make hacker friends instantly! There are prizes up for grabs in multiple categories, not just for those that peak out on the score board.
The CTF Crew will hold a short briefing prior to kickoff to ensure both new players and seasoned, battle-scarred warriors are all in sync for the mayhem that awaits, as well as a walkthrough of some of the challenges once it’s all over for those who don’t want to leave BSides wondering. See you there!
