Huntress CTF 2024

Certificate of Completion

Huntress CTF 2024 was a great experience! As a forensic analyst, I really appreciated how the forensics and malware challenges were designed. The rest of the challenges were also very interesting and well put-together (besides system code... /j)

Going into this, we didn't plan on placing well, so placing 51th overall was a pleasant surprise. Excited to try for a challenge coin at Huntress CTF 2025!
