CYBERANARCHY (CTF) is a 4-hour cybersecurity challenge where teams solve a series of security-based problems to find hidden “flags.”
Participants will test their skills across domains like:
• Web Exploitation
• Cryptography
• Reverse Engineering
• Forensics
• Binary Exploitation
Each challenge carries points based on difficulty. Teams must analyze, exploit, and think creatively to uncover flags and climb the leaderboard.
The competition emphasizes:
• Problem-solving under pressure
• Real-world cybersecurity concepts
• Team collaboration
