The Future of Cyber Operations
Imagine a time where governments, nation states and corporations can hack back! With restrictions lifted, we are focused not only on how to protect our intellectual property and sensitive data, but also we can now protect our agencies by responding to events with active operations!
The year is 2025, and your agency has been exploited by the country of Slandovia. As the leader of a special Red Team, you have just received a brief on how Slandovia has plans to infiltrate agencies' secure and sensitive data. Your team has been tasked with infiltrating and dismantling Slandovia’s plans. With only 24 hours to complete this mission, are you ready to identify and compromise your enemy?
