Round1: Online Open Book MCQ based on Cybersecurity (20m)
Round 2: Hacking Competition (3hrs)
This is a CTF(Capture the flag) style Cyber Security event. Theme of the event is that a medical research lab had successfully found a cure for cancer. But just before the formula was published, a doctor on the research team stole the formula and disappeared after clearing out all files on the research computer. The lab has hired the participant to investigate the computer and recover the formula.The participants have to uncover clues, keys and other “flags” to uncover the puzzles one byone. Each puzzle is a security puzzle which includes OSINT, password cracking, Brute Forcing etc.
Participants will receive points for each puzzle they crack. The participants do not need anyprior knowledge except basic computer and browsing skills. They can ask for help anytime but points will be calculated accordingly. The aim of this event is to create an interest in the cyber security domain.
