The European Cyber Security Challenge (ECSC) is an annual event, powered by the EU Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA), that brings together young cyber talent from across Europe to network, collaborate and compete. The ECSC aims at encouraging young people to pursue a career in cybersecurity, by enhancing participants abilities and connecting them with the industry.
Supported by the European Commission and EU Member States, in a broader sense the ECSC falls within the overall context of the EU's Cyber Security Strategy and the NIS Directive.
Contestants solve security related challenges from domains such as:
• Web and Network security
• Mobile security
• Crypto puzzles
• Reverse Engineering and
• Digital Forensics
Please note that the physical event will take place in Vienne and the official address will be published at a later stage.
