Problem statments for Global Cyber Security Challenge - 2023
Cyber attacks are becoming more common, and these catastrophes affect non-technical users the most. As a result, it's essential for us to come up with new ways to address cybersecurity gaps. This is where cyber hackathons make a difference.
Without question, Cyber Empowerment is a critical necessity of the hour. Cyber hackathons have shown to be the most effective platform for both amateurs and professionals to exhibit their abilities. We are publishing the problem statements and challenging the contestants to build a functional solution via our hackathon.
