Tracks &
Challenges
What will you be doing during our event! This is mostly secret for now, wait until the start of the event to find out about our two tracks!
Data 4 Good Track
This track will push you to develop your own solution to a data challenge faced by the world. We look out for solutions that incorporate a high level of technical knowledge to a problem of significant impact in the world. Although, you will likely only work on this problem for a limited amount of time, we encourage you to continue to develop and deploy your solutions to either the web or other sources to both add to your portfolio, but also benefit humanity!
Capture The Flag Track
In this track, your cyber security technical knowledge will be pushed to the limit! With three exciting difficulties, there is something for everyone. Every completed challenge will grant you a key/flag which can be used to unlock points at any moment during the hackathon. To help you on your journey we have volunteers who work in the cyber security field to give you pointers and tips on how to approach these problems.
There will be mystery prizes for those who win this track
