At the conclusion of the Huntress CTF event, winners will be selected based on the greatest number of points scored. Points can be earned by completing challenges and finding flags (hint: read our Rules page), and points for each challenge may vary. Leaders will be tracked in real time on the Scoreboard.
The top FIFTY (50) participants who have earned the highest points scored will be selected as potential winners. The winning prizes are:
- 1st-Place Prize: $750 USD + Flipper Zero + Raspberry Pi + Huntress Swag + challenge coin
- 2nd-Place Prize: $500 USD + Raspberry Pi + Huntress Swag + challenge coin
- 3rd-Place Prize: $200 USD + Raspberry Pi + Huntress Swag + challenge coin
- 4th to 10th-Place Prize: Huntress Swag + challenge coin
- 11th to 20th-Place Prize: Huntress Swag + challenge coin
- 21st to 50th-Place Prize: Huntress Swag
Note: Huntress will notify the potential winners via email to the email address that the participant provides during registration. The potential winners will have seventy-two (72) hours to confirm once they are notified. If a potential winner does not respond within seventy-two (72) hours of being notified, Huntress will choose an alternate winner with the next highest points scored. In the event of a tie, the individual with the earlier submission of the last flag will be the winner.
