Abstract
SecTutor is a tutoring system that uses adaptive testing to select instructional modules that allow users to pursue secure programming knowledge at their own pace. This project aims to combat one of the most significant cybersecurity challenges we have today: individuals’ failure to practice defensive, secure, and robust programming. To alleviate this, we introduce SecTutor, an adaptive online tutoring system, to help developers understand the foundational concepts behind secure programming. SecTutor allows learners to pursue knowledge at their own pace and according to their own interests, based on assessments that identify and structure educational modules based on their current level of understanding.
