Speaker: UMass CTF

Learn about ethical hacking and cybersecurity in our "Capture the Flag" competition, starting next Monday, Oct. 5th! The Cybersecurity Club is running this week-long event for beginners and experts alike to gain hands on experience with computer vulnerabilities, data obfuscation methods, and other useful skills within cybersecurity.

CTF's are a fun team based competition where you practice cybersecurity skills in a game like setting. Gather some friends and come try it. There's a wide array of challenges with varying skill levels so everyone is welcome. Some of the categories include Binary Exploitation, Reverse Engineering, Cryptography, and Open Source Intelligence. We are also hosting workshops leading up to and during the event, so don't worry if you think you'd be lost.

Make sure to sign up here with your UMass email to qualify for prizes. Also, join our mailing list and Discord to hear more about this and other events! Prizes will be awarded to top contenders.
