Calling all computing enthusiasts!

The Cybersecurity section of the Hwa Chong Infocomm & Robotics Society proudly presents Sieberrsec CTF 5.0, the fifth iteration of our annual Cybersecurity Capture-the-Flag contest, open to both beginners and pros alike from secondary schools across Singapore! (Though the contest will be targeted towards beginners and newcomers, there will be some harder challenges too.) The competition will take place on 9th March 2024, 0900 – 2100.

A pool of prizes sponsored by organisations such as DIS, DSO, DSTA, and Smart Nation Singapore will be up for grabs.

Furthermore, if you are keen to join the vibrant and prestigious Infocomm & Robotics Society, do join this competition! We are always on the lookout for budding Cybersecurity talents.

What is this?

In a Cybersecurity Capture-the-Flag contest, you typically obtain a “flag” by exfiltrating data from a vulnerable website, service or even a memory dump.

In Sieberrsec CTF 5.0, you will get to experience a myriad of challenges from the following exciting categories:

  • Web Exploitation
  • Forensics
  • Binary Exploitation
  • Reverse Engineering
  • Cryptography
  • Miscellaneous

NOI

IRS members conduct the 9th iteration of Informatics Olympiad internal training

Posted on

In November 2023, our Competitive Programming Section and other past year NOI medallists conducted Informatics Olympiad training for 66 students from HCI (High School), HCI (Junior College), and NYGH. This was the 9th iteration of our annual November internal training course.

Aimed at complete beginners, the course equipped students with the essential knowledge to excel in Informatics Olympiad competitions. They were exposed to a wide range of topics, delving into Greedy Algorithms, Dynamic Programming, and Graph Theory.

We are glad to have received positive feedback from students, and hope to see you at our next iteration of November Course! Thank you to the school for supporting this training!
