THE EVENT

Code & Capture is where the hacker meets the thinker. Two disciplines. One arena. Zero mercy.

IEEE CS Chapter FSM SB is dropping an event unlike anything you've seen before — a single hybrid arena where Capture The Flag and Competitive Programming run as one combined experience, spanning May 2nd & 3rd.

Can you break a system and build a solution in the same weekend? This isn't just a competition. It's a test of your entire computing identity.

"Some think in exploits. Some think in algorithms. The truly dangerous ones think in both."

Gather your squad, sharpen your terminal, and prepare to process what it truly means to be a well-rounded engineer. Open to all levels.

THE ARENA
// Core Track — May 2nd & 3rd
CAPTURE
The Flag

Infiltrate systems. Exploit vulnerabilities. Hunt hidden flags across web, crypto, forensics, binary, and OSINT challenges. Integrated with algorithmic checkpoints, this track rewards both tactical hacking and structured reasoning.

CODE
Problem Solving

Think in algorithms. Design solutions under pressure. Competitive programming that tests your data structures, dynamic programming, graph theory, and mathematical reasoning while running inside the same arena flow as CTF.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
Code & Capture is open to all levels — whether you're a first-year student or a seasoned engineer. Both CTF and CP tracks are designed with beginner-to-advanced challenges. If you've never competed before, this is a great start. If you're experienced, this is where you prove it.
The event is team-based. Team size details will be communicated upon registration opening. You can register solo and we'll help you find a squad, or come with your own assembled team.
CTF and CP are merged into one connected arena experience across May 2nd and 3rd. Teams compete through mixed challenge phases under one overall leaderboard. We encourage the full experience — it's what the event was built for.
For CP: standard competitive programming languages are supported (C++, Python, Java, etc.). For CTF: standard ethical hacking tools in any environment you choose. Full technical guidelines will be distributed to registered participants before the event.
Registration fee details will be announced with the official form. Club Ambassadors may be eligible for a special discount. Stay tuned to our official channels for the full breakdown.
Registration drops soon. Follow IEEE CS Chapter FSM SB on our official platforms to be the first notified. The bunker won't stay open long.
Venue details will be confirmed and communicated through official channels prior to the event. The event will be held in-person. Location reveal is incoming — stay alert.
