Google CTF 2017
was a big success! We had over 5,000 players, nearly 2,000 teams captured flags, we paid $31,1337.00, and most importantly: you had fun playing and we had fun hosting!
Congratulations (for the second year) to the team pasten, from Israel, for scoring first place in both the quals and the finals. Also, for everyone who hasn’t played yet or wants to play again, we have open-sourced the 2017 challenges in our GitHub
repository
.
Hence, we are excited to announce Google CTF 2018:
Date and time: 00:00:01 UTC on June 23th and 24th, 2018
Location:
Online
Prizes:
Big checks
, swag and rewards for creative
write-ups
The winning teams will compete again for a spot at the Google CTF Finals later this year (more details on the Finals soon).
For beginners and veterans alike
Based on the feedback we received, we plan to have additional challenges this year where people that may be new to CTFs or security can learn about, and try their hands at, some security challenges. These will be presented in a “Quest” style where there will be a scenario similar to a real world penetration testing environment. We hope that this will give people a chance to sharpen their skills, learn something new about CTFs and security, while allowing them to see a real world value to information security and its broader impact.
We hope to virtually see you at the 3rd annual Google CTF on June 23rd 2018 at 00:00:01 UTC. Check

subscribe to our mailing list
for more details, as they become available.
Why do we host these competitions?
We outlined our
philosophy
last year, but in short: we believe that the security community helps us better protect Google users, and so we want to nurture the community and give back in a fun way.
