MITRE's Embedded Capture the Flag (eCTF) is a collegiate embedded security competition that pits teams from schools around the world against one another in an effort to capture one-another's flags. eCTF is a two phase competition. In the first phase, teams are tasked with designing a secure embedded system based on a set of challenge requirements. The second phase offers teams the opportunity to analyze the designs from other schools, exploiting security vulnerabilities in order to capture flags. Uniquely, all designs run on a real physical embedded device, opening the competition up to physical/proximal attacks.

Our team collaborated with Computer Science & Engineering 10 on this project.
