The road to #ECSC2025 has officially kicked off! We just wrapped up our first qualifier event to select the 10 members of Team Austria who will compete in the European Cyber Security Challenge #ECSC in Warsaw later this year.

Over the weekend, 30 participants focused on attack/defense training with #ENOWARS CTF and tackled some great challenges from #DownUnderCTF. Nice to see so many young and motivated hackers in action.

Huge thanks to IKARUS Security Software for hosting us, to my co-coach Manuel Reinsperger, and to everyone who spent the weekend hacking, learning, and having fun together. Looking forward to the next round.

🍕💻 VICTORIA, YOU’RE SNACK-CRACKIN’ AWESOME! 💻🍕

Our players down under in Victoria are absolutely chipping away at the challenges and the energy in the room is electric (or should we say e-lectric, right e-dog? 🐶⚡️).

Between the code, the cans of soda, and mountains of choccy favourites, the teams are devouring bytes and bites in equal measure – proof positive that fueled hackers = flagged challenges.

Massive shout-out to Deakin University for opening the doors and to the legends at Deakin Cyber for keeping every brain buzzing with endless snacks, drinks and sweet treats 🤭! Your hospitality has been the real MVP – Most Valuable Platter!

We can’t wait to see next year’s in-person event (e-dog’s already wagging in anticipation). Until then, let’s keep those flags flying and the puns rolling. Until then, let’s keep those flags flying and the puns rolling!
