Hackerverse is a global cybersecurity competition ecosystem designed by EC-Council to support and advance the cybersecurity community worldwide. Rooted in EC-Council’s longstanding commitment to empowering cybersecurity professionals worldwide, Hackerverse provides a competitive arena for individuals across all proficiency levels to demonstrate their skills through rigorous, gamified Capture the Flag (CTF) challenges.
Hackerverse was officially unveiled at Hacker Halted 2022, EC-Council’s annual cybersecurity conference that unites ethical hackers, security professionals, and industry leaders from across the globe. A platform for thought leadership and technical exchange, Hacker Halted serves as a convergence point for innovation, research, and discourse on emerging cyber threats and defense strategies.
Hackerverse has helped EC-Council to broaden its impact, transitioning from localized cybersecurity competitions to a truly global competitive platform. Through Hackerverse CTF, a year-long, free-to-enter Capture the Flag (CTF) challenge on Hackerverse, cybersecurity professionals and enthusiasts from around the world can now test their skills on a much larger stage. The competition features a dynamic scoring system that rewards participants for speed and precision, reflecting the high-stakes nature of cybersecurity. With over $100,000 in prizes, it represents EC-Council’s commitment to supporting and rewarding cybersecurity talent worldwide.
As cyber threats continue to evolve, Hackerverse remains a dynamic proving ground, ensuring that the next generation of cybersecurity professionals is prepared to meet the challenges of an increasingly complex digital landscape.
