Capture the Flag (CTF)

Capture the Flag (CTF) is a cybersecurity competition where participants solve challenges related to computer security. These challenges often involve tasks like finding vulnerabilities in software, decoding hidden messages, or answering questions about cybersecurity concepts. Teams earn points by successfully "capturing" virtual flags, which are pieces of data that confirm the completion of a task. CTFs are popular among enthusiasts and professionals as a way to test and improve their skills, learn new techniques, and engage with the cybersecurity community in a competitive yet educational environment.
