PHASES OF EVALUATION
01
HARDWARE
Analyze binary IDs, calibrate signals, and manage equipment logistics.
02
DEDUCTION
Solve logic grids, navigate binary paths, and decrypt encrypted strings.
03
INTELLIGENCE
Verify identities, sort metadata, and identify anomalies in surveillance.
Phase 01
Hardware & Logistics
We are testing your ability to process numerical data, verify hardware, and manage resources under pressure.
Convert Binary IDs
Balance Tactical Payloads
Phase 02
Logic & Deduction
A physical operative is nothing without a sharp mind. We need to see if you can break complex patterns and navigate logical labyrinths.
Solve Shift Ciphers
Deduce Gadget Owners
Phase 03
Intelligence Analysis
Field data is often messy and compromised. You must find the anomalies that others miss and verify identities with 100% accuracy.
Spot Deepfake Discrepancies
