From Friday to Sunday, we have a non-competitive Learning CTF, where you can go through last year's Kubernetes CTF scenario, referring to a cheat sheet whenever you want. This runs from Friday 12:00 to Sunday 12:00. We'll be in the contest area to support you during:
Friday: 12:00-17:00 Saturday: 10:00-17:00 Sunday: 10:00-12:00
On Saturday only, you can play in the competitive Kubernetes CTF challenge, where teams (of one or more) can build and test their skills. Each team is given access to a single Kubernetes cluster that contains a set of challenges. This runs from 10:30am to 5:30pm on Saturday. The competitive CTF is an in-person experience. To register for the competitive CTF, you must come to the contest booth at DEF CON.
Preparations are now well underway for DEF CON 34, and the Kubernetes CTF will be returning for the seventh year.
We're currently looking for field engineer interns! Details and instructions on how to apply can be found here or viewed directly below.
