The discount is shared with participants by the organizers.<\/p>\n<p>For a community built on practical skills, it is a natural next step: a week of hands-on security work, followed by a globally recognized, vendor-neutral credential that proves it.<\/p>\n<h2>EyesOpenCTF 2026<\/h2>\n<p>Launched as Central Africa&#8217;s first cybersecurity competition, EyesOpenCTF is today the region&#8217;s largest open-access cybersecurity competition. From November 20 to 22, participants compete online across more than 40 challenges in 8 disciplines: Web Security, Binary Exploitation, Digital Forensics, Cryptography, Log Analysis, AI Security, Reverse Engineering and OSINT. Around 500 competitors are expected, from beginners to advanced practitioners.<\/p>\n<h2>Focus and Audience<\/h2>\n<p>The 2026 program focuses on practical cybersecurity, AI, emerging threats, infrastructure, AppSec, digital forensics, cloud, resilience, talent development and the future of Africa&#8217;s digital ecosystem. EOCON expects around 200 participants on site in Douala and 1,000 online.<\/p>\n<p>The audience brings together cybersecurity professionals, SOC analysts, pentesters, developers, cloud and infrastructure practitioners, students, researchers, executives, employers and international technical communities.<\/p>\n<h2>LPI as Media Partner<\/h2>\n<p>Linux and open source run through every discipline of a modern CTF, from exploitation and forensics to log analysis and reverse engineering. That is why EOCON and EyesOpenCTF speak directly to the LPI community, and why LPI supports them: practical security skills, open access, and a strong connection between Africa and the global cybersecurity ecosystem.<\/p>\n<h2>About EOCON<\/h2>\n<p>EOCON is a bilingual, hybrid international convention connecting cybersecurity professionals, technology companies, decision-makers, students and technical communities around cybersecurity, artificial intelligence and emerging technologies.
