Ask HN: How do I get better at CTFs

11 points by immortaljoe 7y ago ↗ HN

I've recently started doing the pwnable.kr challenges and I find most of them really challenging, and am able to understand and solve a few with difficulty. What do you guys suggest as good resources for getting better at CTFs.

I recently stumbled upon these slides for an introductory course on C, memory management and computer architecture from a programmers point of view (https://cs.nyu.edu/courses/spring17/CSCI-UA.0201-001/resourc...)

Found this on HN nearly 4 years ago: microcorruption.com

Was able to solve some; went through solutions for the others, in any case walked away with a much better understanding of assembly.
