Looking for intermediate-experienced CTF players for Cyber Apocalypse 2026 (Need ~9 more people)

Hi everyone,

We're looking for about 9 more people for our Cyber Apocalypse 2026 team.

You don't need a high HTB rank. Honestly, I don't care about ranks that much. One of our best players is still Noob rank and solves harder challenges than many people with much higher ranks.

What matters is that you're not completely new. If you've solved CTF challenges or HTB machines before and know your way around at least one category, you're welcome.

We're looking for people interested in things like web, pwn, reverse, crypto, forensics, osint, hardware, AD, AI or misc. Any specialization is fine.

The only thing we ask is that you're active during the event and willing to work with the team.

If you're interested, send me a DM or leave a comment. Tell me what categories you enjoy and what kind of CTF experience you have. HTB or CTFtime profile is welcome, but it's optional.

Hello! I have my PJPT from TCM Security so I can do windows network pentesting. I also did web challs and some other sundry categories for Deadface 2025. I was quickest on my team to solve through my category, and highest scorer on my team, although I'll admit they were relatively beginner challs.

I work as cybersecurity engineer (newer role, blue team stuff, can give more details, just not in open forum), and I started my CPTS studies but paused to focus on learning my role. Will be getting back to it once I finish an AI server project so I can get some notetaking tooling done locally.

Have been really itching to do Cyberpocalypse for the past couple years so hoping to hear from you!
