OWASP University Challenge

The University Challenge is a competition among teams comprised of university students that will be held during the training days of the larger OWASP AppSec conferences (AppSec US, AppSec EU, …).

  • There is no admission fee for the University Challenge – participation in the conference is possible for free.
  • During the University Challenge teams will solve mission style security challenges using the Hacking-Lab framework.
  • The OWASP University Challenge could be limited to 8 teams, depending on available space and budget. Teams will consist of 4-8 students, with one team per university.
  • All team openings are on a first come first serve basis. If multiple teams are received from the same university the second team will be put on a wait list.
  • All team members must be registered. Registration for the University Challenge event is free.
  • Food and beverages will be provided during the challenge and all participants will get an OWASP University Challenge t-shirt. Of course, the first three winning teams will get some small prizes (to be announced).

Introduction

The OWASP University Challenge is a one or two day mission style security challenge event during the AppSec conferences training days! University / Student teams can compete solving hack challenges and defending insecure applications.

Attack-Defense System

Hacking-Lab
The challenges are even more dynamic and realistic now. Instead of just solving different security challenges, teams carry out a virtual online battle against each other in an attack-defense based competition, also known as CTF system. If you are interested to learn more about the CTF system, you will find here more information: CTF System


What is the OWASP UC?

Information

Previous events:

Ticket winning" pre-conference challenges:

-> option for conference to offer free tickets via solving Hacking-Lab challenges -> qualifying for UC? -> Team qualifying 

   Q1: When typically has the event run at AppSec, during the training days or during conference proper?
   A1: The UC is normally hosted during the training days

   Q2: What size of room or seating capacity has typically been used?
   A2: Depending to the PR and number of teams (teams have a max of 8 members)

   Q3: What prizes are usually awarded?
   A3: depends, if the conference manages to find sponsors there are prices. At the AppSec-Eu 2013, there where no prices, only the honor of winning

   Q4: Do the teams  have free conference access?
   A4: No, the teams have to organize travel and lodging themself. all we do is hosting the UC and feed them.
   There are no entrance / attendance fees charged previously
   The attendees usually get free access to the conference (because they travel from foreign countries too)


Hacking-Lab

The University Challenge is run by the OWASP/Hacking-Lab project. Real knowledge derives from hands-on experience.
