Attendees joined Google Public Sector, SADA/Insight, and Carahsoft for an exclusive, hands-on Capture the Flag (CTF) event in Sacramento. 

This was not your typical event. Attendees got behind your keyboard to experience the power of the Google Security Operations platform, a unified solution with the best of Google's threat intelligence, Gemini AI, and search technology. 

Attendees also competed against their peers to solve realistic security challenges and discover how to accelerate threat detection, investigation, and response within your organization. 

This immersive workshop was designed for public sector security professionals of all levels to see firsthand how Google SecOps can help your team tackle today's complex threat landscape.
