Platforms
Competition network
Every team will have a switch on their designated table.
This will provide each team with 24 x 1Gbs RJ45 Ethernet ports on a dedicated switch.
The only way a team can connect to any of the competition platforms is through this switch. This will give access to the competition infrastructure hosted at NTNU and 3rd parties.
Traffic in the competition network will be monitored. NTNU SOC monitors NTNU and FortiNet monitors the Vikingship.
Jeopardy
The ECSC 2023 Jeopardy platform is based on CTFd. Our only functional modification is to patch in the ECSC 2023 Jeopardy scoring formula.
We will set it up in User mode, and pre-register each team with an user account.
All team members will use the same user account to submit flags.
Some challenges will be hosted by 3rd parties. This will be clearly stated in the challenge descriptions. Flags found in these platforms must be submitted in the ECSC 2023 Jeopardy platform to be scored.
All necessary credentials will be provided to the team captains each competition day.
Teams will only be able to access the ECSC 2023 Jeopardy platform from the network provided at their designated tables in the competition venue.
Attack/Defense
The ECSC 2023 Attack/Defense platform is based on the FAUST gameserver and modifications made for ECSC 2022.
The changes we have made is implementing new scoring formulas and necessary adjustments to make everything work even more smoothly with our chosen cloud infrastructure.
