In this video, Asher covers how to prepare for a capture the flag hacking competition. CTF challenges are a great way to learn hacking techniques, strengthen your problem-solving skills, and gain critical hands-on practice for aspiring white hats. These competitions dole out the right level of pressure to keep things interesting while sharpening your skills.

Capture the Flag (CTF) competitions are an outstanding way to sharpen your penetration testing skills. Pen testers are white-hat hackers that work for companies to find security vulnerabilities. It’s lucrative work, but you’ve got to be good at it to make a living. This is where CTF challenges come into play. They’re a fantastic hands-on experience for both aspiring and veteran security professionals.

These events consist of two teams working to locate and capture an opposing team’s “flag” while defending their own. A flag typically consists of a snippet of code or a piece of hardware, and white hat attackers hack each other’s network in an attempt to find it.
