The International Cyber Security Challenge (ICC) is an event, powered by the EU Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA), and organised under the auspices of the annual European Cyber Security Challenge (ECSC) that is also organised by ENISA. It brings together young cyber talent from across the world to network, collaborate and compete. As is also the case for ECSC, it 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 it 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 challenge is in the planning. We will be able to update you on the type of activity proposed and the format later in the year!
