Pragyan CTF
The name stands for Capture The Flag, a popular military exercise and leisure game. The Pragyan version is an ethical hacking contest in which certain pieces of information called flags are hidden on servers, stored somewhere difficult to access. Bring a team ready to be tested on cryptography, steganography, application security, binary analysis, reverse engineering and other real world problems on their way to capture the flag.
The contest will be hosted at https://ctf.pragyan.org/
