Conquer the Hill: Reign Competition Day
Reign Edition is a cybersecurity competition like no other, as this year’s competition transpires within a 3D dungeon crawler platformer game. You will make your way through vigorous challenges, interact with Wizards, Dragons and other NPCs, decrypt secret messages, and navigate your way throughout a kingdom under fire and into the depths of a lair to fulfill your quest. However, not everything is as it seems, and you must use your wits and cunning to progress through levels of increasing difficulty to ultimately unravel the truth. Participants should expect to be tested on their knowledge of cybersecurity, computer science, mathematics, cryptography, and critical thinking skills in general.
