The boot camp is a 5 day practical training about IT security for Bachelor and Master students.
During the boot camp you will learn how to attack systems, find security misconfiguration, and how to abuse them. In the second part of the training, you will learn how to figure out what happened on an infected infrastructure and perform basic investigative steps. To gain more hands-on experience, you'll have access to a cloud-based lab environment, where you can actually perform attacks yourself and also find traces of malicious activities.
