CTF Training Platform

Practical Cybersecurity Training Lab

A CTF-based cybersecurity training platform focused on penetration testing scenarios, with vulnerability simulation and challenge deployment for internal awareness and red-team rehearsal.

## Goal

Move security training from slide decks to hands-on labs that mirror the attack patterns the team actually defends against.

## Design

Modular vulnerability scenarios, scoring, and isolated lab environments per participant. Challenges range from web exploitation to AD lateral movement.

## Infrastructure

The platform is defined in Terraform rather than assembled by hand — VPC networking and security groups, compute, a load balancer, ACM certificates and DNS records, deployed through a CI pipeline. Because the environment is disposable, a compromised or exhausted lab is rebuilt from source rather than repaired, which is the property that makes a deliberately vulnerable environment safe to run at all.

## Outcome

Hands-on labs replacing slide-deck training, and a challenge library the team can extend without rebuilding the environment each time.
