What?

A cybersecurity festival that brings together ethical hackers and security specialists of various backgrounds and skill levels — from enthusiasts to true professionals.
Over the course of a week, four distinct cybersecurity events take place under one festival, each tailored to a different audience:
  • An introductory program for beginners and students, designed to immerse them in the world of cybersecurity
  • A meetup for professionals, offering deep insights and networking opportunities
  • A cyber battle for hackers, where skills are tested in real-time
  • A closed event for elite hackers, focused on advanced challenges and collaboration

Challenge

The goal is to unify the four tracks with a common design while making the differences and overall structure of the festival clear to each audience.

Solution

The timeline for the project was very tight — everything had to be completed within two months.
I proposed creating a unique character for each of the four festival tracks, each with its own accent color. On the main page, all four characters are shown together, and their heads become colored on hover.
The main festival page uses red as the primary color — the same red as the "Red Team" in the Cyber Battle.
The Cyber Battle has two characters, representing the two opposing sides: attackers and defenders.
