DEADFACE Actors
DEADFACE is the fictional hacker collective at the center of the CTF universe—a rogue syndicate of cybercriminals operating in the digital shadows. Known for their cryptic messages, data leaks, and orchestrated cyberattacks, DEADFACE challenges players to unravel their secrets, follow their digital footprints, and uncover the truth behind their operations.
In the context of the CTF, DEADFACE isn’t just the antagonist—they are the game. Each challenge represents a piece of their world: stolen files, corrupted memory dumps, leaked credentials, intercepted messages, and exposed backdoors. Their members each bring unique specialties—from social engineering to reverse engineering—mirroring real-world TTPs (tactics, techniques, and procedures) and pushing players to think like adversaries.
To beat DEADFACE, players must hack like DEADFACE.
