What the organisers say

Our challenges range from beginner to hard in difficulty. Our esteemed members have worked tirelessly to bring new and stimulating CTF challenges to pose varying levels of difficulty and topic (RE, binary exploit, web exploit, cryptography, forensics, osint, misc.). There are two divisions, Open and University of Michigan students. No team limit sizes. Sponsors to be announced!

Prep briefing

What past editions were made of

Counted across 185 challenges from 2025, 2024, 2023, using the categories the scoreboards themselves used. Two things to hold in mind while reading it. The archive indexes challenges that someone published a solution to, not whole scoreboards, so this is the shape of what people wrote about rather than of everything that was set. And where a scoreboard gave no category the challenge lands in misc, so a large misc slice means “unlabelled” rather than “miscellaneous”.

  • misc 55%(89)
  • rev 11%(18)
  • pwn 10%(17)
  • crypto 9%(15)
  • web 7%(11)
  • osint 5%(8)
  • forensics 2%(4)

What to have open when it starts

The challenges people wrote about most

From previous editions, ordered by how many published solutions each attracted. Reading two solutions to one of these is the closest thing to a warm-up for this event that exists.
