The International Challenge

ENISA (European Union Agency for Cybersecurity) in collaboration with other regional and international cybersecurity organizations is hosting the inaugural International Cybersecurity Challenge (ICC).

The aim of the challenge is to attract young talent and raise awareness of the need to increase education and skills in cybersecurity.

A Steering Committee across the globe has been established comprising government, regional institutions, universities and research centres to design the competition.

The Challenge

Teams will compete in a series of cyber challenges comprising,

• Web application and system exploitation,
• Cryptography,
