*About Google’s “Capture The Flag” (CTF):
Competitions consist of a set of computer security puzzles, or challenges, involving reverse-engineering, memory corruption, cryptography, web technologies, and more. When players solve them they get a “flag,” a secret string which can be exchanged for points. The more points a team earns, the higher up it moves in rank.
Do you want to compete at your best with a top performing team?
Take our brief computational thinking evaluation and get ready for the hackathon with a few Online Lessons perfectly suited to your level.
