CTFGuide

CTFGuide is a social learning platform focused on cybersecurity education and skill development, primarily targeting individuals interested in Capture the Flag (CTF) competitions and hands-on security training. The platform provides a practice range where users can access community-uploaded challenges, writeups, and dynamic lab environments. Unlike static CTF challenges, CTFGuide offers interactive lab environments that simulate real-world scenarios, allowing users to engage with tasks in a more dynamic way. Key features of the platform include challenge writeups with detailed solutions and explanations, a hints system to assist users who are stuck, and a commenting system that enables collaboration and discussion around individual challenges. A real-time leaderboard allows users to track their standing relative to peers. CTFGuide also incorporates a community contribution model, enabling users to upload their own challenges and share their own writeups, which supports ongoing growth of the platform's content library. The platform targets cybersecurity enthusiasts, students, and practitioners looking to develop or sharpen their offensive and defensive security skills, particularly in preparation for CTF competitions. The social and community-driven nature of the platform distinguishes it from traditional static training resources.
