What is CPTC?
See here for an official description
The Collegiate Penetration Testing Competition (CPTC) is an event in which teams are hired to do a simulated penetration testing engagement that includes:
- Pentesting a network
- Doing business injects
- Writing a report
- Giving a presentation (if you attend finals)
Every year, a new theme is chosen along with a fictional organization that will be pentested.
