June has become the month where we’re inviting thousands of security aficionados to put their skills to the test...
In 2018, 23,563 people submitted at least one flag on their hunt for the secret cake recipe in the Beginner’s Quest. While 330 teams competed for a place in the CTF Finals, the lucky 10 winning teams got a trip to London to play with fancy tools, solve mysterious videos and dine in Churchill’s old chambers.
This June, we will be hosting our fourth-annual Capture the Flag event. Teams of security researchers will again come together from all over the globe for one weekend to eat, sleep and breathe security puzzles and challenges - some of them working together around the clock to solve some of the toughest security challenges on the planet.
Up for grabs this year is $31,337.00 in prize money and the title of Google CTF Champion.
Ready? Here are the details:
- The qualification round will take place online Sat/Sun June 22 and 23 2019
- The top 10 teams will qualify for the onsite final (location and details coming soon)
- Players from the Beginner's Quest can enter the draw for 10 tickets to witness the Google CTF finals
Whether you’re a seasoned CTF player or just curious about cyber security and ethical hacking, we want you to join us. If you’re just starting out, the “Beginner's Quest” is perfect for you. Sign up to learn skills, meet new friends in the security community and even watch the pros in action. See you there!
