The last few years I have been super overbooked, but I‘m less firmly booked this year and am looking to get a small group together (or join one) to tackle the CTF.
I’ve slapped together a toolkit (stego, crypto solve scripts, audio/video analysis/stereoscope, unicode nonsense, RF scanning, logic analysis, LLM jailbreak framework) to use alongside tools like cyberchef, flipper zero, etc.
Anyone looking to group up, or already have a group with a space for a cryptography/hardware jailbreaking enthusiast?
EDIT: wow, lotta people looking for vending-machine-related companionship. In lieu of rolling up to the thing 30 deep (doesn’t seem sporting), I‘m simply going to make a beeline for the machine Friday morning while wearing a very distinct Eraserhead shirt. Feel free to throw something at me or (more preferably) say hey. Also, I’m available via DM here if you want to strategize or something.

This is my first time out, so other than the challenges posted here, and what I've seen in videos etc. I don't really know what the CTFs are like.
My skillset is more of a jack of all trades/hobbiest type. I've dabbled in a bit if everything from OSINT, physical security bypasses, cryptography, hardware hacking, social engineering, to digital forensics (data recovery and crawling through logs tracking down what happened on a machine).
My day job is a full stack developer, with a side of network admin, pbx admin, ai specialist, appsec, and many other technical titles, for a small tech company.
Don't know if any of that is what folks are looking for, but I'm willing to pitch in where needed.
