About this event

Learn cybersecurity in an interactive, hands-on way.

In Partnership with Cybersecurity Society Sydney (CSS) we introduce: Bug Bounty: Gruyère Workshops which is a cybersecurity treasure hunt that introduces students to real-world attack techniques and gives them the opportunity to apply these concepts against intentionally vulnerable websites.

What to expect

  • Escape room-style structure

Unlike traditional Capture the Flag (CTF) competitions where all challenges are available at once, this experience is linear. You must solve one challenge to unlock the next.

  • Hands-on web exploitation

Each challenge is a deliberately insecure website that can be compromised purely through browser interaction, without any source code inspection.

  • Attacker-focused thinking

Participants will discover vulnerabilities by thinking like an attacker rather than a developer.

Who is this for?

  • Students interested in cybersecurity with a competitive mindset

  • Individuals with basic coding knowledge looking for a practical, applied experience

Important: Please bring your laptop.
