Why can't I log in immediately after registration?
Registration alone is not enough for the pilot. You must verify your email and then wait for explicit admin approval before platform access is unlocked.
FAQ
Clear entry conditions reduce friction.
These are the questions that matter before someone registers, asks for access or tries to understand where the product boundary really is.
Common questions
The public answers should be short, operational and unambiguous.
Do I need to register before accessing the CTF?
Yes. Registration and authentication are required before entering the competition portal and joining events.
Will every challenge require VPN access?
Not necessarily. The platform supports VPN-gated challenge lifecycle controls only when the event or lab policy requires segmented access.
Can I attack the platform itself?
No. Only intended challenge targets and assigned lab resources are in scope. Platform abuse is prohibited.
Can event rules change?
Yes. Challenge availability, scoring, rewards and operational controls may change without prior notice when fairness or safety requires it.
How do I reach the labs once approved?
Approved users generate a restricted WireGuard profile from their account. The VPN is for lab reachability and does not open admin or broad host access.
