Theme for TISC 2022

PALINDROME is back again with a vengeance. Singapore is facing yet another large-scale cyber attack that compromised and disrupted several of Singapore's critical infrastructure and cyberspace.

There will be a series of challenges for Cybersecurity experts to complete in order to put a halt to PALINDROME's operations. The levels will cover topics from Web Pen-testing, Forensics, Reverse Engineering, Binary Exploitation, Cryptography, Mobile Security and Cloud.

More information will be released. Join CSIT and other fellow Cybersecurity experts on this journey to investigate and hunt down PALINDROME.
