The Riksbank's cybersecurity competition ROCCS 2024

On 17 October 2024, the Riksbank will for the first time organise a cybersecurity competition, the Riksbank's Online Cybersecurity Challenge Summit (ROCCS), with the aim of encouraging actors in the Swedish financial sector to practice and increase their competence in dealing with cyber threats.

The competition is an online cybersecurity competition that takes the form of a so called “Capture-the-Flag” competition. Each participating organisation enters the competition with a team of up to three participants, who act as hackers and solve various challenges and problems.

In addition to the Riksbank, 16 other organisations from the Swedish financial sector, including financial authorities, financial infrastructure and commercial banks, are participating.

Prizes will be awarded to the winning team and to the best individual participant "Most Valuable Player (MVP)".

The Riksbank hopes that the competition will become a regular event every autumn in October which has become Cyber Security Awareness Month.
