NovruzCTF is an annual online cybersecurity competition launched by the QarabagTeam to celebrate Novruz, a holiday symbolizing renewal, growth, and the arrival of spring. The first edition is planned for March 2026.
What to expect:
• Format: Currently a classic Jeopardy-style competition featuring a wide range of categories (Pwn, Web, Reverse, Crypto, Forensics, etc.).
• Future Vision: We are actively developing the infrastructure to transition into an Attack-Defense format in subsequent years, bringing a new level of excitement and realism to the holiday.
• The Spirit of Freedom: NovruzCTF is built on the principle of pure freedom. There are no flag quotas or bureaucratic barriers. We believe in an open door where anyone with a passion for信息安全 can join, play, and learn without restrictions.
• Community First: This is a community-driven event. Whether you are a seasoned CTF veteran or a beginner taking your first steps, you are welcome here.
Prizes:
Thanks to the support of QarabagTeam (a Russian-based CTF community), we are proud to offer a prize pool to the top-performing teams, recognizing the best of the best.
Join us to celebrate the spring holiday of Novruz with puzzles, pixels, and packets!
