OCRI CTF - Fair Play Rules

Welcome to the OCRI CTF! Our goal is to create a fun, fair, and educational experience for everyone. To keep the competition exciting and fair, please read and follow the rules below.:

🔒 Access Rules During the Competition

  • 🎯 Work Cooperatively: Your objective is to discover and learn together using what you know and what you discover through researching and discussing. Make sure you are discussing each challenge, Googling the challenges, and trying to figure out the best approach together.
  • 🔑 No Punishment for Wrong Answers: Try it out! You won't be penalized for guessing the wrong answer.

    • Good luck, have fun, and make the most of this opportunity to sharpen your cybersecurity skills! 💻🛡️⚔️

    1. Respect the Game & Others

    • Your targets are the challenges, not the competition systems, other players, or infrastructure. Let's keep it ethical and fun!

    2. Use Tools Wisely

    • You don’t need automated tools like sqlmap, DirBuster, Nmap, Metasploit, or Nikto for most challenges. These can negatively affect the game environment.
    • If unsure, ask!

    4. Keep It Fair & Fun

    • No flag sharing. Every team should solve challenges on their own.
    • No cheating or exploiting loopholes in an unfair way.

    5. Keep Challenges Available for Future Learners

    • Do not post write-ups or solutions online. We want to keep the challenges fresh for future players!
    • However, discussions and knowledge-sharing in person after the competition are encouraged.

    6. AI Use Policy

    • Players may use AI tools to assist with challenges, but these tools should support—not replace—your learning.
    • Use them to explore ideas and clarify concepts, not to do the work for you.
    • Note: We cannot help troubleshoot problems caused by AI-generated errors or hallucinations.
    • Use AI wisely and take ownership of your learning.

    Flag Format

    • Most of the Flags will be in this format: ocri{[0-9a-zA-Z_]}
    • This means each flag will start with ocri{......}, and inside the curly braces, it may contain letters, numbers, dashes, or underscores.

    Keep it fair, have fun, and happy hacking! 🚀

    If you look closely, you can even find a flag on this page!
