Beginner looking for a CTF team to learn and grind with!

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to join an existing CTF team or partner up with a few people to tackle upcoming competitions together.

About me:

Level: Beginner, but highly motivated to learn and grind.

Practice: Regularly active on TryHackMe and other gamified platforms.

Background: I know the basics and hold a few foundational cyber certifications.

Whether you’re an established team willing to take on a fresh mind, or other beginners looking to group up and figure things out together, I'd love to connect.

Hit me up or drop a comment if you have a spot or want to team up!

"Hi everyone, I’m a cybersecurity student helping a classmate with a persistent harassment issue. An anonymous troll account is downloading her original videos and reposting them with inappropriate captions.

We’ve tried standard reporting, but the account remains active. I’m looking for technical advice on the following to build a stronger case for a legal takedown:

Identity Pivoting: Which tools are currently most effective for mapping a TikTok handle to other platforms? I’ve looked at Sherlock and Maigret, but are there others better suited for TikTok’s current API?

Metadata Extraction: Aside from finding the authorID in the page source, are there tools that can help identify account creation dates or proximity to other accounts (to see if it’s a 'sockpuppet' account)?

Image Forensics: Since the troll is using my classmate’s image, would tools like PimEyes or Lenso.ai be the best route to check for cross-platform presence?

Archive/Evidence: How can I best preserve this evidence for a DMCA claim? Is there a way to capture the metadata of the reposted video to prove it was a direct download of her original?

We aren't looking to dox, just gathering technical evidence to force a manual review by TikTok's safety and legal teams. Any advice from the experts here would be great. Thanks!"
