BearcatCTF 2026 details coming soon...

BearcatCTF is a 24-hour CTF competition hosted by Cyber@UC each year in February. Students from neighboring universities come to the 1819 Innovation Hub to compete against each other for prizes. What makes BearcatCTF unique is that participants are solving cybersecurity problems outside the comfort of a full desk setup. This adds to the fun and makes the event truly special.
