CryptoHack

Hi all,

We have recently brought our new challenge platform CryptoHack (https://cryptohack.org) out of beta. It's already been tested by the admin of 247CTF who says he loves the site! We'd be honoured to get added on WeChall.

4a) Site description:

CryptoHack is a fun platform to learn modern cryptography through solving challenges and cracking insecure code. Can you reach the top of the leaderboard?

It was founded by two crypto enthusiasts from the UK, hyperreality and Jack. hyperreality is currently working as a devops engineer and Jack is studying for a PhD in black holes.

We bonded over our shared passion for solving crypto CTF challenges, but realised that most people find cryptography a tough topic. We wanted to build a "HackTheBox of crypto", where users are encouraged to learn about how crypto works, and how to break it when it doesn't. We'll be continuing to release new challenges to stay up-to-date with the latest attacks and techniques.

The site was released to the world on 26th March.

Thank you,

That's the best designed crypto challenge site I've ever seen.
It's like the cryptopals crypto challenges except as interactive site.

As Taw already said, the website is really well made. The challenges are both oriented for beginner and advanced peoples, highly recommend.

We got added, thanks @tehron.
