The beginner CTF is aimed at students and newcomers, with very easy to mid-level challenges in jeopardy style. This CTF is open to all, without limitations on the number of teams.

It will be held on Saturday, November 12th in hybrid mode: on-site for Politecnico di Torino students and Turin-based teams, and online for everyone else. The CTF will be 5 hours long, from 2 pm to 7 pm, and teams can have up to 4 people.

One hour before the end, the scoreboard will be frozen and the winners will be announced during the conference the following week. The top 3 teams whose all members are students at Politecnico di Torino will be awarded.

To prove that you are a student from Politecnico di Torino, you will have to use your institutional email address during registration.

For the first time, this year, our team is also organizing 3 free introductory-level workshops on CTFs, primarily targeted to Politecnico students, but open to all. They will be held every Thursday from 6pm to 8.30pm, from October 20th to November 3rd, on-site at Politecnico di Torino.
