In search of the Swiss national hacking team
The Swiss Hacking Challenge (SHC) 2025, the national championship for young Swiss cybersecurity talents, was launched on March 1st. The SHC is organized by the Swiss Cyber Storm association and is the official partner of ICT vocational training Switzerland for cybersecurity qualifications for participation in SwissSkills and WorldSkills.
The 2025 qualification phase will run from March 1 to May 1 and will take place online. The best of these will then compete at an on-site meeting on July 12 and 13 - the location has not yet been determined. This year's Swiss national hacking team will then be recruited from the most successful participants in the final round. Among other things, this team will represent Switzerland at the European Cyber Security Challenge (ECSC) 2025. This European hacking championship will take place in Warsaw from October 6 to 10.
Anyone wishing to join the Swiss hacking team must be between 14 and 25 years old and a Swiss citizen. However, anyone can take part in the qualification.
