dCrypt 2020 was an enthralling spectacle, with over 120 participants competing over 48 hours (10th and 11th October) in an intense game that required technical ability, strategic planning, and a certain degree of shrewdness. There were 25 questions, ranging from topics such as quantum cryptography to binary exploitation. The attack-defense system was the bane of some and a boon for others, but certainly one that gave way to a very exciting cryptic hunt.
