This is what running a campus looks like.

Students organising cybersecurity events on their campuses — and the CTF floor at full intensity.

What you get

Six reasons to represent.

01

Lead A Club

Build and run your university’s cybersecurity club as its president. One president per club — but it’s earned: members can vote out an inactive president and take the lead.

02

Request Events

Name the topic; we power it. Request a CTF or workshop and get access to our proprietary hacking platform — we host the infrastructure, you organise the event on campus.

▸ Featured

Win Cash Prizes

Every ticket booked for the events you organise is 10 points toward your club’s global ranking — and the top-ranked clubs each season win cash prizes.

04

Student Portal

A secure console to track requests on a Kanban board, submit media for approval, run your club chat room with president announcements, and watch your stats climb in real time.

05

Dedicated Mentor

Pair with an Exploit3rs mentor who has run real operations — guidance from an operator, not a help desk.

06

Global Community

Join a global chat room with ambassadors from universities worldwide — swap tactics, coordinate, and represent Exploit3rs on your campus.

How it works

Apply to operating in four steps.

01

Apply

Submit the ambassador application. It takes a few minutes — no experience needed, just tell us about your campus and your drive.

02

Get Reviewed

We review every application in 5–7 business days. Shortlisted candidates get a short video call before onboarding.

03

Onboard

Approved ambassadors get the Student Portal, access to our hacking platform, and a dedicated Exploit3rs mentor.

04

Operate

Request events and organise them on campus — every ticket booked earns your club points and climbs the leaderboard.

The scoring

Every ticket is ten points.

Request an event, organise it on campus, and every ticket booked earns your club ten points on the global leaderboard — no cap. Request, host, rise. At season’s end, the top clubs take home cash prizes.

Questions

Before you apply.

01

Do I need cybersecurity experience?

No. Eligibility is any enrolled undergraduate or postgraduate student at a recognised university anywhere in the world. We look for communication skills, community drive, and enthusiasm — the technical side, we train.

02

Can students outside the UAE apply?

Yes. The Student Ambassador Program is open to enrolled undergraduate and postgraduate students at recognised universities worldwide.

03

How does my club climb the leaderboard?

Every ticket booked for an event your club requests and organises earns 10 points toward its global ranking. Request events, host them on campus, and the board updates as you go.

04

Who runs the events we request?

You request the event and organise it on campus. Exploit3rs hosts the infrastructure on our proprietary hacking platform and gives your club access — challenges, scoring, and the live scoreboard. We can assist with on-site logistics if you need it.

05

Can a club president be replaced?

Yes. Leadership is earned, not permanent — if a president stops actively contributing, the club’s members can vote to replace them and take the lead. It keeps every club active and accountable.

06

How do ambassadors and clubs communicate?

Every club gets its own chat room inside the Student Portal, where the president can post announcements and members coordinate events. There’s also a global chat room connecting ambassadors from universities worldwide.

07

How long does the application take to review?

We review every application within 5–7 business days. Shortlisted candidates get a short video call before onboarding.

08

What happens after I’m approved?

You get access to the secure Student Portal and our hacking platform, plus a dedicated Exploit3rs mentor — then you can start requesting and organising events.
