Capture the Flag!

Step into a hands-on ransomware investigation designed for real-world incident response. In this interactive CTF, participants—competing individually or as part of a team—will analyze authentic artifacts, follow the attack chain, and determine how a ransomware intrusion unfolded from initial access through impact.

The entire challenge runs in your browser using Cybervance’s Vertex cloud-based cyber range—no installs, no setup, no specialized hardware required. Work at your own pace during this high-stakes event, answer investigative questions, and demonstrate practical IR and forensic decision-making in a realistic environment.

Participation is limited to 50 participants. Top performers will earn the coin! Access details and instructions will be emailed prior to the event. Select this option to reserve your spot and receive updates as additional information becomes available.
