Capture the Flag Competition
In support of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) outreach, MITRE and other sponsors annually host a virtual, national Capture the Flag (CTF) Competition. In this event, students compete against their peers in cybersecurity challenges. Notable industry and academic partners helped design these challenges.
The competition features both high school and college level divisions. Mixed teams are allowed, but must compete at the highest level of the team members. Teams of four compete to solve challenges covering topics such as steganography, software exploitation, computer forensics, cryptography, networking, and mobile computing security. Virtual cyber training and practice challenges are available to help teams prepare for the competition.
