About The Operation
SecLeaf Q4 CTF 2026 is an international Capture The Flag competition open to everyone—from complete beginners to experienced cybersecurity enthusiasts.
With challenges ranging from beginner to advanced, it’s a great opportunity to learn, test your skills, and explore cybersecurity at your own pace. In the age of AI, we encourage you to learn, experiment, and solve challenges yourself rather than relying entirely on AI. You’ll gain much more from the experience.
