Source: Novosibirsk State University – Novosibirsk State University – From October 24 to 25, the International Conference on Information Security “Kuban CSC 2024” and the competition in practical information security “Kuban CTF 2024” were held in Sirius on the territory of the Imeretinsky resort. Team Faculty of Information Technology NSU won the final of the practical information security competition. A total of 16 teams from all over Russia participated in the final.
The team from NSU included:
Roman Lebedev, senior lecturer at the Department of Computer Systems, FIT NSU; Vladimir Sitnov, postgraduate student, assistant at the Department of Computer Systems, FIT NSU; Vladislav Nikiforov, master’s student at FIT NSU.
The Olympiad was held in two stages – a semi-final and a final. The stages were traditional Jeopardy (quiz) and Attack-Defense (CTF competition format, in which teams receive identical servers with a set of vulnerable services, to which the jury periodically sends private information – flags) competitions.
— There are not many CTF competitions in Russia that are accessible not only to students, so we decided to take part. We were also attracted by the location of the event. In addition, it was an opportunity for us to get together as a team. The main thing we managed to learn was that the Kuban CTF 2024 final had a very good level of execution. We can recommend these competitions to our student teams in the future. Personally, I am pleased with the performance. Not only did we win, but we also had a good time, — Roman Lebedev shared his emotions.
Such competitions are primarily good because they give participants the opportunity to test their knowledge and apply it in practice.
Congratulations to the winners!
