This one- to two-day workshop offers female HTL students a hands-on introduction to the Shecurity Hackerinnen Training and provides practical insights into the field of cybersecurity. In addition to technical learning, the event creates a space for networking and exchange among 50 students from across Austria.

The event will begin with a welcome session, followed by a presentation of the Forensic Lab by Maria Kloibhofer from FH St. Pölten. After the lunch break, participants will gain insights into the DEFON25 CTF Challenge Experience presented by Hannah Fluch from the ACSC Team and HTL Spengergasse. The afternoon continues with an interactive “Capture the Flag” session focused on solving security challenges, before the day concludes with closing remarks and a social event in the evening.

On Saturday, participants will receive an exclusive look into the production and security features of Austrian high-security documents, including the passport. This will be followed by an introductory session on web application pentesting hosted by CSA. The program will conclude with a step-by-step exploration of a real-world hack before departure.
