Think you’re good at writing secure code? Let’s put that to the test—no hacking experience required! We’ve set up a beginner-friendly CTF (Capture The Flag) challenge designed specifically for developers. It’s a simple web app with a comment system. But… there’s a tiny flaw hidden inside. ?? Your Mission (if you choose to accept it!): ? Play around with the app ? Spot the vulnerability ? Exploit it and capture the flag - inject an alert(‘Wizer’) You don’t need to be a security expert—just your curiosity and problem-solving skills are enough to break it. Think like an attacker for a moment, and you’ll see how a small mistake in code can have big consequences. ?? Are you up for the challenge?

Phishing isn’t just in emails—attackers target TRUSTED sites your company visits, too. A single download from a familiar website can be all it takes. ??

Your vigilance protects everyone! Watch our real life story of this scam that we dramatized to spread awareness. Like this video?
