ColaSec CTF Update

The changes in life right now are causing everything to go virtual!  This includes our scheduled CTF event that was to take place on March 28.  We scrambled around to find the best options we’d have for making this a 100% online virtual CTF and we found a partner in the Virginia Cyber Range.  They have provided us a pro bono CTF infrastructure that we can use to have a little fun and learn a lot in the process.

We will run the CTF from 10 AM to 5 PM on Saturday March 28 as planned.  Below is the link where you can go ahead and register for the CTF but you won’t be able to answer any challenges until it opens at 10 AM.

Please note that Team Name == display name. The CTF does not support creating teams but feel free to work as a group if you want.

We also intend to run a Google Hangout for the live demonstration where and so that we can chat, answer questions, etc.  We’ll also utilize the #ctfchallange in our Slack channel to post official announcements.
