Contests

Our DefCamp community dedicated environment for activities and competitions is the Hacking Village. Since 2021 we turned hybrid and we work with CyberEDU, a cyber-range as a service platform to manage hacking competitions, capture the flag competitions and tournaments.

We plan to keep on hosting exciting infosec competitions from our main DefCamp Capture the Flag to the IoT Village and Social Engineering contests. But of course we want to bring more every year, as they attract lots of participants from all over the world. We are permanently looking for exciting contest proposals to be included in the Hacking Village so if you have any ideas, feel free to contact us.

We have a short wishlist of competitions we would love to host for the DefCamp conference.

If you believe that you can support us to make any of those challenges happen, drop us a line.

Do you have a new & exciting idea?

Submit your contest plan proposal and engage the largest cybersecurity conference from CEE!

We will contact you asap and align together what would be the best approach to make it happen.
