BroncoCTF 2026

CTF Discord: https://discord.gg/WT7HXqx8jP

BroncoCTF is an international CTF competition hosted by BroncoSec. It ran in-person conjunction with Hack for Humanity, Santa Clara University's social good hackathon.

This year, we are sponsored by SANS Institute, who sponsored the course scholarship prize for our in-person event!

In BroncoCTF, teams of up to 4 hackers solve various cybersecurity challenges by hunting for secret flags hidden in programs, cryptosystems, files, and even games! Use your ethical hacking skills to solve digital puzzles involving real-world technologies.

BroncoCTF 2026 will be our fifth CTF, and our third year hosting the event globally!

This event was run in-person and with limited online participation in February. So, it unfortunately cannot be considered for rating. However, now that we have worked out most (all?) of the issues, we are running it again, this time to a larger audience.
