About

Welcome to the Capture the Flag Team page of the HdM

Here you can find out everything worth knowing about our team, the contact person and which qualifications you need to join us.

Together we hack systems in our own training lab environment as well as on training platforms like TryHackMe, Hack the Box, VirtualHackingLabs, VulnHub etc. Our goal is to understand the causes for security issues, how to exploit and how to avoid them.

First to Qualifications:

• none
• ok, you should have general IT and programming skills. :-)
• Otherwise, simply fun to acquire new knowledge or to extend existing competences is enough to join us. So it does not matter if you are a beginner or an expert. Of course you also have to have fun hacking with others and eating one or two slices of pizza 🍕

Come to the dark side we have flags!

Our CTF team at HdM has been founded in October 2020.
