For the past few months I’ve been helping develop challenges for the DoD Cyber Sentinel Challenge that hosted nearly 5,000 players yesterday. On of my favorites I called “Let’s Game, Boy!” and made a fully playable Gameboy ROM with an embedded flag. Check out the walkthrough below. A few people managed to beat it by using dynamic analysis, or well-placed patches. #ctf #cybersecurity #security #cyberjobs #dod #uscybergames

You guys did an awesome job putting this together. I’m relatively new to the field and have been learning as much as I can. I thought I was progressing well…and then I did this Cyber Sentinel CTF. It made me feel dumb. It was a great time and the 8 hours flew by and felt like 2. I look forward to doing some more

I saw you in slack, I think, ask if anyone did your challenge. I eventually attempted it and was blown away! If only I had more time. I just found a web based emulator and threw it in there. Even after fiddling with all the options that gave me, couldn’t get it to work. Really cool challenge, thanks.

Oh, so you're the reason I felt hopeless that day.

This was one of the last challenges I attempted, but I wish it’d been one of the first! So unique and engaging. Thank you!

This one was super fun! Had a blast stepping through Ghirda looking for the forbidden flag. Great work!
