How RSET Ernakulam Ran a Live CTF with Real-Time Anti-Cheat on CYBERCOM

Full-Managed
Event mode

End-to-end CYBERCOM deployment - no third-party platform underneath.

Live
Anti-cheat

Flag-sharing detection and real-time monitoring active throughout the event.

Per-Student
Scorecards

Ranked shortlists exportable for faculty review and placement screening.

Rajagiri School of Engineering & Technology deployed CYBERCOM for an inter-collegiate CTF - full platform, live anti-cheat, and per-participant scorecards in a single managed engagement.

The challenge

RSET Ernakulam needed a CTF that could handle inter-collegiate scale - dozens of teams, mixed skill levels, and the expectation that participants would attempt to share flags or collude. Traditional CTF platforms either lack live anti-cheat visibility or require substantial self-hosting overhead.

CYBERCOM delivered the event as a fully managed engagement: one platform for registration, challenge delivery, scoring, and monitoring - with zero self-hosting burden on the faculty team.

What changed

The anti-cheat system's live dashboard gave organizers visibility into submission timing anomalies and flag reuse patterns as they happened - not after the event in a log review. Suspicious submissions were flagged in real time, letting faculty make disqualification decisions mid-event rather than post-hoc.

Per-participant scorecards - challenge categories, solve counts, time-to-solve - gave the faculty team exportable evidence of actual skill, not just a leaderboard position. That data is now reusable for placement screening without running another assessment.

The live anti-cheat dashboard caught flag-sharing attempts in real time. As an organizer, having that visibility during the event was a first for us - it raised the competition standard significantly.
