What is ZiTF? This is a Capture the Flag #CTF-style cybersecurity competition. At the origin of the project: 3 engineering school students experienced in this type of competition, who have given themselves the challenge of creating their own within their school, with a great desire to share and a touch of fantasy as a bonus. 🤟🔥

At Root-Me we appreciate this enthusiasm, and we are delighted to be at their side for this second edition!

How’s it going to work? :
This CTF will be at a beginner/intermediate level with a face-to-face/distance format: Open to all students remotely, accessible to ISIMA students in person.
It will include about thirty challenges in various categories (web, crypto, OSINT, reverse, forensic, misc etc.).
The CTF will take place on Saturday, March 11th, both remotely and on location on the ISIMA Campus in Clermont-Ferrand.

Are you a student and ready to take up the challenge? Don’t wait: registrations are open until March 3rd!
