Beagle Security’s flagship Capture the Flag event, DomeCTF, made a powerful comeback this year, and was bigger, bolder, and more competitive than ever. Hosted at the Grand Hyatt, Kochi, the event drew an impressive 120+ registered teams, with 83 teams actively participating in a 24-hour battle of wit, skill, and endurance.
From the moment the countdown began, the air was charged with anticipation. Laptops glowed through the night, strategies unfolded in real time, and every solved challenge was met with cheers and high-fives. DomeCTF once again proved that cybersecurity isn’t just about defense but about discovery, creativity, and relentless curiosity.
The challenges were anything but ordinary. Participants navigated intricate problems across web exploitation, cryptography, reverse engineering, forensics, and more, testing both their technical depth and collaborative spirit.
While the initial phases tested even the most seasoned players, what stood out was the unwavering determination of every team. They pushed through fatigue, celebrated small victories, and learned something new with every failed attempt. They embodied exactly what DomeCTF stands for: growth through grit.
The atmosphere at the event was a perfect mix of tension and thrill. Students, professionals, and hobbyists worked shoulder to shoulder, proving that innovation in cybersecurity knows no boundaries.
The event wasn’t just about who reached the top of the scoreboard. It was about the journey, the problem-solving, and the moments of insight that bring out the best in every participant. DomeCTF 2025 became a celebration of collaboration and learning, where every challenge turned into a lesson, and every solution sparked a new idea.
As the final hour struck, Team Lolbin, emerged as the champions of DomeCTF 2025.
To honor their achievement, Rejah Rehim, CEO of Beagle Security, took the stage to present the ₹1,00,000 cash prize, commending their technical brilliance and perseverance. The moment symbolized not just victory, but the spirit of a thriving cybersecurity community coming together to learn, compete, and evolve.
For Beagle Security, DomeCTF is more than an event. It’s a reflection of our mission to nurture cybersecurity talent and build a stronger security culture. Each edition inspires participants to go beyond theory, to break barriers, and to contribute to a safer digital space.
As we close the chapter on this year’s DomeCTF, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to every participant, organizer, and supporter who made it a success.
