This 8-week, virtual, instructor-led course focuses on applied systems and AI security rather than governance strategy or AI development. Participants work through a realistic case study to evaluate security controls, AI risks, and operational safeguards, then develop a prioritized roadmap to strengthen system security and AI oversight.
Learning is grounded in internationally recognized standards and reflects how organizations actually secure information systems and AI-enabled technologies in operational environments.
Participants also gain access to optional LevelSec professional development opportunities, including expert panels, peer networking, and career-focused sessions to support professional growth and leadership development.
