Summary: | Due to their usefulness in cybersecurity education, Capture the Flag(CTF)
competitions have been incorporated into Nanyang Technological University’s
CZ4067 Software Security module. This project aims to add new challenges to the
existing CTF challenge bank for the module that are effective in enhancing the
learning experience of the students in the module and encourage self-directed
learning by the students. The reasons for using CTFs in education and the current
cybersecurity trends were reviewed in order to determine factors that could
contribute to designing effective challenges for the CZ4067 module. The project
then identified crucial design and implementation considerations to be made in
developing the CTF challenges, before releasing a subset of the challenges for a
test by current CZ4067 students. Survey results were then collected from the
students to evaluate the effectiveness of the challenges designed. The completed
challenges were then integrated into the CTF challenge bank, ensuring the
availability of new challenges for future CZ4067 CTF competitions. |
