Been working through high-difficulty geolocation challenges solo — learning a lot, failing a lot, tracking until something clicks.

Not sure who else works like this — patient, slow, detail-first.

If you're out there, I’d value knowing. Even just to follow along.

MetaCTF has joined with BSides Saskatoon again to be our official CTF Partner!

With their generous sponsorship, we're able to hold a CTF for all your hacking needs at the conference.

They have an amazing, user friendly, CTF platform that breaks down complex cybersecurity concepts into engaging challenges that simulate real world scenarios.

We're so gracious that they agreed to sponsor BSides Saskatoon again in 2025 as our official CTF Partner!
