openECSC

Only young talent under the age of twenty-five (25) and ten (10) contenders from each nation per year are eligible to compete in the European Cyber Security Challenge (ECSC). In order to raise awareness of cybersecurity and advance the ECSC's long-term objectives, openECSC, a worldwide cybersecurity competition that is open to everyone, is planned to debut in 2022 alongside the ECSC.

Everyone (including non-EU citizens), regardless of whether they are a security enthusiast or an expert, are free to showcase their abilities at this event and engage the biggest cybersecurity community in the world in order to support even more talents.
