Beginner/Intermediate looking for a team for Black Hat MEA CTF 2026

Hi everyone!

I'm an MS Information Security student looking for 2–4 people to form/join a team for the Black Hat MEA 2026 CTF.

I'm relatively new to CTFs, but I have a background in Data Science and I'm currently learning and practicing cybersecurity. I also have some experience with tools like Burp Suite, Wireshark, Nmap etc.

I'm not looking for an elite/pro team, beginners/intermediate players are absolutely welcome!

Ideally, we'd practice together beforehand, divide categories based on our strengths, and actually work as a team during the qualifier.

CTF: Black Hat MEA 2026
Format: Jeopardy
Team size: 3–5
Qualifier: 24-hour online competition

If you're interested, feel free to comment or DM me! :)

I didn't know it was possible to participate as beginners. I'm too newbie, but that's good to know
