About VishwaCTF
CyberCell VIT proudly presents VishwaCTF, our flagship cybersecurity competition that has grown into a globally recognized event. From a small campus gathering in 2020, it became Maharashtra’s first global CTF and India’s third-largest in 2021. Since then, VishwaCTF has expanded rapidly, with our latest edition drawing 3,200+ participants from 98+ countries. With strong industry support, we’ve continually raised the challenge complexity, prize pool, and overall experience. As we prepare for VishwaCTF'25, our 5th edition promises to be the most challenging and rewarding yet, further cementing our place in the global CTF community.
