PSA: This was a live working session for which we will not have a recording for. The giveaway was also given live for the winner of the challenge, therefore there is no detection giveaway for this episode. Please stay tuned for future live Capture the Flag sessions!

Welcome to the thrilling Cybersecurity Capture the Flag (CTF) challenge powered by Anvilogic, where you step into the role of a team member for an organization that has a newly opened DevOps branch in Krakow, Poland.

With the sensitive nature of your company’s cloud-based initiatives – your mission, if you chose to accept it, is to ensure robust detection coverage for the region.
