CTF scoreboard
CTF last about 4h. I’ve scored 66pts. x13x37 was very very
fast at gaining most of the flags xD. We all worked together
up to 1st place. Yep, I’ve teamed up with the right person
there. He’s got 7 years of experience as PT.
3. Exam
While taking tests if you choose the wrong answer they will
give you immediate responses and explanations. After the
whole test, you see something like this. This can help you
find out on which topic you need to focus more.

II. PREPARATION:
Secret menu
The more work I’ve done with the materials the better
possibility of greater results. The same will work for you:
as soon as you get your books, read team for the first
time. Call it the first reading. See what’s in them.
Familiarize yourself with the content. See what you are
already familiar with. See what it’s new for you. Take
your first notes. Later you will want to go through the
books three to four times more.
2. Class
play with the labs also after the class or at least with
the one you are not familiar with. Take your time with
them.
3. CTF
After the class I took my time and prepare myself for the
GCIH certification exam, which I took in early 2023:
take the first test exam. See what you are missing. Take
notes. Improve your index, and go back to labs. The
same goes for the second test.
Have fun!
