CTF warm-up

Mini challenge: Crack the signal

This is how most of my CTF blocks start — small breadcrumbs that snowball into a full exploit. Pop open the micro terminal, read the files, base64 decode the payload and submit the flag.

  1. Use the terminal to ls + cat the intercepted files.
  2. Run python3 decode.py signal.enc to generate signal.dec.
  3. Finish with cat signal.dec | base64 -d and submit inv1s1bl3{...}.

Need a nudge? Use the mini terminal commands (help, ls, cat) to peel back layers.

Status: awaiting signal...

Tip: use the mini terminal below. help lists commands like ls, cat, python3 decode.py signal.enc, cat signal.dec | base64 -d, version.

</About>

CTF player, systems tinkerer & creative builder

I'm Om aka Inv1s1bl3 — a cybersecurity enthusiast who grew up solving InCTFj challenges and never stopped. Today I compete with Team BlitzHack, a top-5 Indian CTF team, stacking podium finishes and memories (Bsides Mumbai, InCTFj, Pragyan CTF, VishwaCTF, 07CTF, BDSec, and more).

Beyond competitions, I have been a Minecraft server developer for large communities such as Among Us India (140k+ members) and Capital Realm. I build scalable infra, plug-ins and automation that keep thousands of players online with minimum downtime.

I also love product thinking — from co-hosting OSCTF & BlitzCTF for 4k+ hackers to building TourneyPlus and internal tooling that help teams run esports events, manage brackets and automate payouts.
