Thank You

Thank you to all of the Project Obsidian volunteers who started planning and working on content back in December and January. The Security Engineering (SecEng) crew put a ton of work into setting up infrastructure, implementing requests from the various teams, and getting everything in place for CTF participants. This would not be possible without our SecEng crew and the rest of our volunteers.
