Comparative Analysis on Student's Interest in Cyber Security among Secondary School Students using CTF Platform

Currently, cybersecurity is a topic of great importance for society. With the increase in the use of technology and the digitization of many activities, the number of cyber threats to which individuals and organizations are exposed has increased. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the digitization of many processes, further increasing the risk of cyberattacks. One of the main causes of these problems is the lack of cyber security awareness, as many people and organizations do not have a proper understanding of cyber threats and the measures, they must take to protect themselves. As a solution to the lack of cybersecurity knowledge, this work proposes the development of a Capture the Flag platform for learning about cybersecurity. The objective is to provide a tool that allows the education of future professionals in this field and covers the existing demand for this type of specialist. The platform is made up of two sections, one for learning and the other for CTF. The first section allows teachers to contribute to the teaching of their students using challenges. The second section allows one to carry out competitions with effective results when acquiring knowledge and experience. The platform is evaluated using questionnaires and surveys to measure whether the platform fulfills its purpose.
