This course provides an introduction to the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in the field of information security.

Designed for information security defenders, the course covers foundational AI history, concepts, and data science underpinnings.

Participants will learn how AI enhances threat detection, malware analysis, incident response, and can be used as a daily task accelerator. The course includes hands-on sessions where participants will learn how to setup an AI development environment, program and leverage some pre-trained models for predictive analysis in Python and Jupyter Notebook, and utilize some existing frameworks for AI-LLM prompt engineering.

Ethical considerations, privacy concerns, and future trends in AI for cybersecurity are also discussed. By the end of the course, participants will have a solid understanding of AI fundamentals, development and building block technologies, some of the potential challenges, and how AI might be applied in their everyday professional careers.
