What is a CTF?
A Capture the Flag (CTF) competition is a cybersecurity competition where teams compete to solve a series of challenges. These challenges usually revolve around specific topics such as web exploitation, binary exploitation, reverse engineering, forensics, cryptography, etc.
The goal of each challenge is usually to find a hidden piece of text, which is called the flag (hence the name of the competition). The flag can be hidden in a file, in a database, in a web page, in a binary, etc.
