A Jeopardy-Style Capture-The-Flag (CTF)
Capture The Flag (CTF) is an exciting cybersecurity competition where participants compete to uncover ‘flags’, hidden pieces of information concealed within cryptic files, vulnerable programs, or security loopholes. The competition challenges participants in various cybersecurity domains, testing their ability to solve security puzzles and exploit vulnerabilities.

The CTF follows a Jeopardy-style format, where teams solve cybersecurity challenges across multiple categories. The first round will be held online, and only the top-performing teams will qualify for the final round, which will take place offline at CDTI Jaipur.
Scoring & Rankings
Each challenge is assigned points based on its difficulty level. More complex challenges yield higher points. Teams will be ranked based on their total score, and in case of a tie, the team that achieves the score in the shortest time will be ranked higher.
Venue & Participation
The first round will be conducted online, allowing teams to participate remotely. The final round will be held offline at CDTI Jaipur, where shortlisted teams will compete in a high-stakes environment.
Teams can have 1-3 members to encourage diverse skill sets and effective collaboration. All participants attending the offline final round must provide a valid photo ID for verification. Failure to do so will lead to team disqualification.
