RuCTF 2012

RuCTFE is an annual online international challenge in information security. It was held for 3 times already: 2011, 2010 and 2009.

The contest is driven by classic rules. Each team gets a virtual machine image containing the set of vulnerable services. Once in a while the jury fills services with private information — the flags. The goal of each team is to find vulnerabilities, fix them on their server and exploit them in order to get flags from other teams. Please refer to the rules page and Wikipedia article for slightly more info.

RuCTFE 2012 starts November 24, 2012 at 15:00 UTC and will last for 8 hours. The registration is open from October 22 to the start of the competition. We provide 150 registration slots. For now we have 146 registered teams divided in 3 initial groups. Groups assignment can be reached on Participants page.
