Participation is open to students, developers, designers, and technology enthusiasts worldwide.

Teams may consist of 1–4 members.

All projects must be developed during the hackathon period. Existing open-source libraries and frameworks may be used, but the core solution must be created by the team.

Participants must submit original work. Plagiarism or copying another project will result in disqualification.

Projects should focus on cybersecurity, web security, privacy protection, threat detection, digital safety, ethical hacking education, or related topics.

Solutions must comply with all applicable laws and ethical guidelines. Projects that perform unauthorized attacks, malware deployment, data theft, or illegal activities are strictly prohibited.

Teams may use any programming language, framework, cloud platform, or development tools.

All submissions must include source code, documentation, and a working demonstration.

Judges' decisions are final and based on innovation, technical implementation, usability, impact, and presentation quality.

By submitting a project, participants confirm that they own the rights to their work and grant CyberCoders permission to showcase the project for promotional and educational purposes.
