Greetings fleshlings,
Summer is officially over, we have CTFs and the semester ramping up again, so we might also have more students joining us. I added the events for this month into our calendar and here's the breakdown (we always meetup at SBA Research, Floragasse 7, 5th Floor, unless mentioned otherwise):
- 2026-10-10: FortID CTF. We have no idea what to expect from this one, but the rating on CTFtime seems decent. We are meeting on Saturday from 10:00 onwards.
- 2026-10-17: Next try for Securinets CTF. In case it gets moved again, there should still be other CTFs to play. This one starts at 11:00 on Saturday, I will most likely be at SBA from 10:00 onwards already.
- 2026-10-24: HITCON CTF, expect hard challenges. We meet starting from 10:00 on Saturday. Unfortunately there's also Hack.lu CTF running in parallel, maybe we are lucky and Hack.lu CTF gets moved (or we do a little multi track drifting?)
- 2026-10-31: Qiangwang Challenge on Cyber Mimic Defense Qualification. Whatever this is. It's a Chinese CTF, so it can't be bad, right? Meeting at 10:00.
- 2026-11-02: Monthly meetup monday, see you at 18:30.
