    CAPTURE THE FLAG CHALLENGE

    Securing Helm the Right Way

    Think your Helm skills are solid? Let’s put them to the test.

    Join Cloudsmith for an interactive, hands-on Capture the Flag (CTF) challenge focused on real-world Helm security practices. You’ll face a series of guided scenarios covering exposed secrets, overly permissive misconfigurations, provenance pitfalls, and dependency chaos — all mapped to common (and not-so-common) Kubernetes security challenges.

    Built for DevOps, Platform, and Security teams alike, this CTF is your chance to sharpen your Helm skills and learn how to build, audit, and defend Helm charts across the Kubernetes application lifecycle.
