Mini-Competition:
The MINIVAL 15A was a part of the MTA Mini-Competition that took place in December 2019. It was comprised of five short challenges, focusing on reverse engineering, web exploitation, binary exploitation, digital forensics, and cryptography/cryptanalysis. The challenges, which required participants to analyze, exploit, or decipher a given binary file, web application, packet capture file, and encrypted or encoded data, were to be solved individually in the allotted time of six hours. The top three winners of the MINIVAL 15A were awarded with MTA Certificates.
