Barrett Darnell to Present at SnowFROC

Capture the Flag (CTF) competitions range in style and difficulty but each and every CTF offers a wealth of knowledge for any participant. In the talk: Demystifying CTFs, Barrett Darnell will provide an overview of CTF formats, the skills they require and the experience they develop, and conclude with a plethora of CTF resources for those wanting to participate. The main focus of the talk will be relating how both technical and non-technical skills learned through CTF participation can be applied to real world information security challenges. The target audience for this talk are those who are interested in playing CTFs and would like to maximize the value from them.
