On 15th July 2022, a team of Bulletproof penetration testers took part in the online Hack the Box Business CTF competition. The CTF (Capture the Flag) event consisted of almost 3000 participants, with each player putting their ethical hacking expertise to use in a number of challenges. There were also prizes up for grabs for the top three teams on the leaderboard. This was the first year Bulletproof entered the competition and we look forward to competing in next year’s event.
Here’s a lowdown on the event, the types of challenges the teams faced, and the key learnings our pen test team took away from the event.
Hosted by Hack the Box, the Business CTF is a global InfoSec competition that pitches cyber security teams against each other in a series of hacking challenges, based on real-world vulnerabilities.
The Business CTF is held remotely, over a duration of 3 days, and is open to corporate cyber security companies of all sizes. With over 30 challenges to complete across 8 categories, teams compete for a prize pool of over $50,000 and of course, hacker bragging rights.
Hack the Box’s Business CTF attracts some of the biggest names across industries that include, InfoSec, finance, accounting, and software companies. While the Business CTF event is only in its second year, it has already begun attracting Fortune 100 companies to its annual competition.
This year, a few of our Bulletproof penetration testers took on the online Hack the Box challenge, pitting their skills against 656 companies, finishing in a respectable 24th position.
The CTF event consists of 8 challenges. Teams must attempt to complete as many of the tasks as possible, capturing ‘flags’ within each category. Capturing a flag consists of bitesize challenges ranging in difficulty, with the purpose of finding a ‘flag’ or a line of text hidden in software code, web application, or somewhere on the web.
The skill level varies, from beginner to advanced, which makes the challenge of the Business CTF accessible for all security professionals. It’s also a valuable training experience for junior and senior pen testers.
This year’s challenges included:
What better way to pit your cyber wits against some of the biggest players in the world of InfoSec than to take on the Hack the Box CTF challenge. Our team of pen testers took away valuable insights from the event. The Business CTF gave each player a chance to collaborate and engage with one another, and most importantly, have fun in a competitive environment.
Here’s a rundown of the key takeaways from 2022’s Business CTF event:
Hack the Box provides a gamified and engaging learning platform for cyber security professionals to share their ideas and methodologies. Not only is it a hub to gain valuable knowledge from one another, the Business CTF event is a way for cyber security teams to display their ingenuity at solving simple and complex tasks that reflect real-world vulnerabilities. By combining practical learning in a relaxed environment, teams and players can reinvigorate their skillset and have fun at the same time. We’ll be back next year!
