Full event format & rules
  • Participate solo or in a team of up to five.
  • Prizes cover at least the top ten teams, with separate awards for first solves on special problems.
  • Bring a laptop, internet access and a mobile phone with a camera; some challenges require the camera. At least 4G is available at the venue, and installing tools beforehand is recommended.
  • Do not brute-force or fuzz infrastructure unless a challenge or organizer explicitly permits it. Do not share flags or discuss solutions before the CTF concludes.
  • Document the basic logic of your solutions. Winners and the next three teams must submit documentation for every solved problem within 30 minutes of the CTF ending.
  • Follow all venue guidelines. The 0x1337 Hacking Club’s decisions on fair play and cheating are final.
