Overview

This executive-level course cuts through the hype and confusion surrounding AI and the cyber security risks of AI. It provides leaders with the clarity they need to deploy AI safely and responsibly as well as information about how AI can be used to perform cyberattacks and how organizations can defend against them.

AI is transforming the enterprise, but it also introduces complex security, privacy, and governance risks that many organizations underestimate but which can create major legal, financial, and reputational damages. This course is split into three parts and is aimed at C-level leaders and senior executives.

The first part provides an overview of AI risks in the enterprise with a focus on security. It aims to qualify the strategic understanding needed to avoid blind spots, understand AI systems can be manipulated, challenge overconfident vendors, and incorporate AI in ways that are safe and compliant. The second part informs how AI is being used in cyberattacks, and how AI-enabled threats can be combatted. The third part covers AI governance and organizational policy essentials.

Through engaging case studies and hands-on, executive-friendly labs, participants explore general risks as well as specific security risks. Leaders are equipped with practical frameworks for AI risk classification and are empowered to address and mitigate the risks.
