Attack & Defense

The Hackathon will take place in the Hacking-Lab. The online lab contains a variety of challenges that can be used to train and consolidate IT security skills. The platform is used for educational and training purposes in schools and universities, in companies also in the recruitment process. Various associations have set themselves the goal of promoting young cyber talents and motivating them for a professional career in IT security. They organize challenges based on the Hacking-Lab.
