Feb - Mobile Reverse Engineering
Participants had to use a dynamic debugging tool while engaging with analytics skills needed to conduct a thorough security test on mobile applications.
Aug - Cryptanalysis
Participants had to engage with advanced mathematics skills to decrypt a tweakable block cipher.
Oct - Software Engineering
Participants were required to build 2 client-side programs (in Python, JavaScript, Java or C#), while engaging with concepts such as rate limits, big O notation and time, space complexity.
Nov - Kubernetes
In this Cluedo-esque challenge, participants had to complete a 3-part Kubernetes challenge and exercise their cloud containerisation skills.
Dec - OTel & Prompt Engineering
In this 2 part challenge, participants had to monitor and troubleshoot microservices using open telemetry, then create and refine prompts for the flag.
