HackTheArch
HackTheArch is a scoring server platform developed by the Military Cyber Professionals Association (MCPA) using Ruby on Rails framework. The platform serves as a generic scoring infrastructure specifically designed for Cyber Capture the Flag (CTF) competitions and events. The system provides functionality for easy addition and modification of CTF problems through a web-based interface. Event organizers can create, edit, and manage challenges without requiring extensive technical knowledge of the underlying infrastructure. The platform includes a hint system that allows competitors to request hints for challenges at a predetermined cost, adding a strategic element to the competition. This feature helps balance accessibility for participants while maintaining challenge difficulty. HackTheArch tracks comprehensive event statistics and participant progress throughout competitions. The scoring system monitors team performance, problem completion rates, and overall event metrics. The platform is distributed under the MIT license, making it freely available for use and modification by the cybersecurity community. Organizations can deploy and customize the system according to their specific CTF event requirements.
