Frequently Asked Questions

Once registered, you can either create a new team or join an existing one using a unique join code shared by your team captain.

We use dynamic scoring. Challenges start at a maximum point value and decrease as more teams solve them, rewarding those who solve difficult tasks early.

Please report any platform vulnerabilities or bugs to the administrators via the official Discord channel. Do not exploit them.

The competition is open to everyone interested in cybersecurity, from beginners to professionals.

Common tools include Burp Suite for Web, GDB or Ghidra for Pwn/Reverse, CyberChef for Crypto, and Wireshark for Forensics. A Linux environment (like Kali or Parrot) is highly recommended.
