Introduction

After the first CTF last year of IIT Mandi, we now present to you the second CTF. We call it a v2.0-beta because it is just a glimpse into the actual CTF to be held in Utkarsh. This time, I have passed on the problem setting baton to Akshat Malviya (2nd Year) and Anant Mishra (3rd Year). I am happy that we’d be continuing to hold the event on my web terminal project.
P.S. There is a lot of going on the terminal, so I hope in the next release we’d be able to use a much more enhanced terminal with ubuntu like features on the terminal.

The Event

The event will be held on 27th January,2019 from a To-Be-Decided time for a To-Be-Decided duration. The event will be hosted on https://ctciitmandi.herokuapp.com. The prize money for this event is Rs 1200/- for the top two participants.
