iCTF is a month-long competition where daily challenges are posted to Discord. Challenges are usually beginner-focused, and with new challenges in the morning (for me), I’ve found it to be a good warm-up to start off the day. I also have writeups for round 6 and round 7. Challenges which I found particularly fun this round were Restricted Access, Greatest Common Flag Hardened, and too_smoll. A big thank you to all the challenge authors and board members for organizing this round.

In general I found this round to be about on par, but maybe a bit easier than the prior round. Challenges which I found particularly fun this round were It’s not RSA, I swear!

This round had a large number of crypto challenges, which I found pretty interesting and a good driver to learn some new stuff along the way. Round 6 ended up with just under 1600 members in the server, and the community has been very welcoming and helpful!
