Our Review
This is a “hands-on” hacking event in Dubai and as such we’ve labeled it as being a “training event”. If you’re new to Cybersecurity and are interested in becoming a Penetration Tester or any form or InfoSec practitioner or are trying to find ways to get a job in Cybersecurity, then this workshop/event would be ideal. There’s no better way to learn how to be an Ethical Hacker than to do a Capture the Flag competition.
