Secure coding training quiz generator

Why Choose This Project?

Most software vulnerabilities (like SQL Injection, XSS, CSRF, Insecure Deserialization) arise from poor coding practices. Developers often learn secure coding only after breaches occur. This project helps bridge the gap by automatically generating quizzes and coding challenges around secure coding concepts, making learning hands-on, interactive, and scalable.

What You Get in This Project

A quiz generator system focused on secure coding practices.
Randomized MCQs, coding snippets, debugging challenges.
Categories like Web Security, Authentication, Input Validation, OWASP Top 10.
Leaderboard & performance tracking for developers/students.
Admin panel to add/update security questions and coding challenges.

Technology Stack

Layer	Technology
Frontend	HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap, React/Angular (optional)
Backend	Node.js (Express) / Spring Boot / Django
Database	MySQL / PostgreSQL / MongoDB
Quiz Engine	Custom logic (Random Question Picker, Difficulty Scaling)
Authentication	JWT / Spring Security
Visualization	Chart.js / D3.js (for performance graphs)

Key Features

Feature	Description
Dynamic Quiz Generation	Randomly picks secure coding questions from DB (MCQs, True/False, Coding Challenges).
Code Snippet Challenges	Shows insecure code (e.g., vulnerable SQL queries) → user must fix it.
OWASP Top 10 Coverage	Questions categorized by real-world risks (Injection, Broken Access Control, XSS, etc.).
Difficulty Levels	Beginner → Intermediate → Advanced quiz levels.
Explanations & Hints	After answering, user gets explanation about best practices.
Leaderboard & Scoring	Tracks user scores, shows top performers.
Admin Panel	Admin adds/edit/remove questions, sets difficulty levels.
Reports	Users get performance reports with weak areas highlighted.

Working Flow

User Flow

User logs in / registers.
Chooses quiz mode (MCQ, Code Fix, Debugging).
System generates a random set of secure coding questions.
User answers → system checks correctness and gives explanations.
Points awarded for correct answers, difficulty scaling for next round.
User sees leaderboard and personal performance report.

Admin Flow

Admin logs in.
Adds/updates questions (MCQ, Code Challenges).
Monitors user performance reports.
Uses analytics to improve quiz content.

Security Features

Secure Input Validation → Prevents quiz tampering (e.g., altering answers via browser tools).
Role-Based Access Control → Users vs Admins.
Leaderboard Protection → Prevents score manipulation.
Encrypted Database Storage → Stores sensitive data (user info, answers).
HTTPS Communication → Ensures safe portal usage.
