Event Overview

This is a red team style capture the flag event that puts you and your team in the role of hackers trying to break into an emulated internal network. Assemble a team of 3 to 4 players ready to dig into vulnerabilities, decrypt systems, and disable key services before time runs out. This time, you’ll have Willa on your side. Willa is a new AI teammate built to guide you through the game with real-time tips, helpful insights, and resource suggestions. She can even flag a live proctor if something needs attention. Whether you're stuck on a flag or just need a nudge, Willa has your back. Get ready to think like an attacker, act fast, and work as a team.

What to expect
