Inscrutable

Jeopardy-style CTF team

DFIR by love. Web by habit. PWN and REV under protest.

the short version

no affiliation, just scoreboard

cat about.txt

Inscrutable is a jeopardy-style CTF team: five players who enter as one team and score as one team.

DFIR is why we show up — memory and disk forensics, timelines, incident-response work. Web exploitation comes second, and gets played properly. PWN and reverse engineering we mostly do not enjoy, and we do them anyway, because the scoreboard does not care what we like.

We stopped playing once AI tooling got good enough to solve the same challenges we were grinding on. The 2025 season below is where we left it.

  • PWN — memory corruption, exploit dev, under protest
  • REV — static and dynamic reversing, also under protest
  • CRYPTO — played when it looks like fun

also played: osint, misc, hardware, and the one challenge nobody read
