# KC7 host resources

This site walks you through hosting a KC7 cybersecurity event and using your KC7 tenant. New hosts can go from request to running a session in a few hours. Returning hosts can jump straight to the tenant docs to add games, manage classrooms, and review results.

KC7 is a detective-style cybersecurity game. Participants investigate simulated incidents using the same tools real analysts use. You don't need a security background to host. The platform handles the teaching.

Watch a 2-minute overview of KC7.

## New here? Three steps

{% hint style="success" %}

1. [Request your event](https://kc7cyber.com/gameon) (about 5 minutes)
2. [Read the quick start](/getting-started/quick-start.md) (about 15 minutes of prep)
3. [Run your event](/running-your-event/event-day.md) (45 minutes to a few hours)
   {% endhint %}

## Common pages hosts open first

* [What is a KC7 event?](/getting-started/what-is-kc7.md)
* [Available game modules](/event-resources/game-modules.md)
* [Technical requirements](/planning/technical-requirements.md)
* [Templates and materials](/event-resources/templates.md)
* [Troubleshooting](/event-resources/troubleshooting.md)
* [Get help](/community/getting-help.md)

## How this site is organized

* **Hosting an event** covers planning, running, and closing a session.
* **Using the tenant system** covers the platform that holds your games, users, and analytics.
* **Volunteering with KC7** covers how to contribute to the project.
* **Community** covers Discord, support, and feedback.

You can work entirely inside one section. Hosts who never touch the tenant docs can still run a great event, and tenant admins don't need to read the hosting docs to manage the platform.
