Participants will be challenged with cybersecurity related puzzles from categories like network exploitation, cyber forensics, cryptography, and cyber trivia. Little to no experience in cybersecurity is required. Awards and prizes will follow immediately after the competition. Registration is now open and is free to all middle and high school students.
