Most organizations consume AI rather than build it, which means every security professional now has to treat AI systems as part of the attack surface. This foundational course expects general cybersecurity knowledge and no AI/ML background at all. It sets out what AI and machine-learning systems actually are in security terms, then works through the AI threat landscape by way of MITRE ATLAS, the risks that come with LLM-based applications by way of the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications, and the widening attack surface that autonomous AI agents introduce.
Participants tie all of it back to the NIST AI Risk Management Framework and finish with the practical defenses and workforce habits that fold AI into ordinary security work — inventory, input and output filtering, least-privilege tool access, monitoring, and the human review gates that catch what automation misses.
