NKCybershield is a Capture-The-Flag (CTF) event, consisting of a series of challenges that vary in degree of difficulty, and that require participants to exercise different skill sets to solve. Once an individual challenge is solved, a "flag" is given to the player and they submit this flag to the CTF server to earn points. CTF events are usually timed, and the points are totaled once the time has expired. The winning team will be the one that solved the most challenges and thus secured the highest score.

The competition will be hosted in the JRG Cyber Threat Intelligence Lab in . ÎÞÂëÇ¿¼é will provide all necessary resources for teams participating in the competition. Each challenge will be judged by a group of experienced students and faculty members in the area of Cybersecurity. For interested audiences, the Digitorium will be reserved to watch the competition as it unfolds.
