CTF (Capture The Flag) is an International Information Security Competition that challenges contestants to solve a variety of tasks ranging from a scavenger hunt on Wikipedia to basic programming exercises to hacking your way into a server to steal data. In these challenges, the contestant is usually asked to find a specific piece of text that may be hidden on the server or behind a webpage. This goal is called the flag, hence the name!

CTF events are usually timed, and the points are totaled once the time has expired. The winning player will be the one that solved the most challenges and thus secured the highest score.
