What
InfosecTrain, a leading cybersecurity training provider, is hosting a free masterclass on Securing with AI vs Securing AI. As artificial intelligence becomes a core part of modern cybersecurity, organizations face two equally important challenges: using AI to strengthen cyber defenses and protecting AI systems from emerging threats. While AI is helping security teams detect attacks faster, automate investigations, and improve decision-making, AI models and applications themselves have become attractive targets for attackers. This masterclass will help participants understand the difference between securing with AI and securing AI, and why both are essential for modern enterprises. The session will explore practical AI security use cases, common risks affecting AI systems, governance and trust considerations, secure deployment practices, and real-world approaches to building resilient AI-powered environments. Participants will also gain insights into how AI security is shaping the future of cybersecurity and the skills needed to stay ahead in this rapidly evolving domain.

When
19 Aug (Wed)
07:00 – 10:00 PM (IST)

Why Attend
AI is transforming cybersecurity, but understanding where AI strengthens security and where AI itself needs protection is becoming a critical skill for security professionals. This masterclass is designed for cybersecurity practitioners, cloud professionals, AI engineers, developers, risk managers, and technology leaders who want to navigate both sides of the AI security landscape confidently. Attendees will gain practical insights into securing AI-enabled environments, identifying AI-specific risks, implementing effective security controls, and building trustworthy AI systems. Whether you are beginning your AI security journey or expanding your cybersecurity expertise, this session will provide practical knowledge applicable across modern enterprise environments.
Attendees will earn a CPE certificate, receive free career guidance and mentorship, and learn directly from experienced industry experts.

Agenda
Part 1: AI Fundamentals

• AI, ML, and Deep Learning: How Machines Actually Learn
- Understanding Artificial Intelligence, AI Capabilities and Functionalities, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning, including the three core learning paradigms: Supervised, Unsupervised, and Reinforcement Learning
- Distinguishing Predictive AI from Generative AI, and understanding where each is applied in real-world systems
- How AI Models are built and mapping the full AI system pipeline: data collection, preprocessing, model training, validation, deployment, monitoring, and retraining

• Generative AI, LLMs, RAG, and Agentic AI Explained
- Breaking down how Large Language Models work: tokens, context windows, transformer architecture, system vs. user prompts, and the difference between foundational and fine-tuned models
- Understanding Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and Agentic AI: how models retrieve external knowledge, and how autonomous agents plan, reason, and use tools
- Introduction to the Model Context Protocol (MCP)

• Learning Pathway
- What Developers & Engineers need to learn to build and maintain AI/ML systems, covering architecture, training pipelines, and deployment practices
- What Analysts and Cybersecurity End Users (Offensive, Defensive, and GRC professionals) need to learn to effectively and safely use AI in their day-to-day work

Part 2: Securing with AI: AI for Security Operations & Offensive Security
• Using AI for Security Operations
- How AI helps SOC analysts process high volumes of log data faster and reduce alert fatigue
- Applying AI to threat intelligence workflows: summarizing threat feeds and correlating Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) against frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK
- AI use cases in vulnerability management and incident response

• AI-Driven Offensive Security
- Leveraging AI to accelerate reconnaissance and scanning: recon script generation and interpreting scanning and enumeration results
- AI-assisted password attacks and phishing simulation: targeted wordlist generation and crafting realistic social engineering scenarios for authorized testing

Part 3: Securing AI — Attacking & Defending AI
• How AI Systems Get Attacked: Poisoning, Evasion, Prompt Injection, Jailbreaks
- Understanding data and model poisoning, evasion attacks, and model and data theft
- Prompt injection (direct and indirect) and jailbreaking techniques used against LLMs and agentic systems, OWASP ML/LLM Top 10 and MITRE ATLAS

• Defending AI: Guardrails, Data, Model & Application Security
- Implementing input/output guardrails for LLMs, and securing AI data across its lifecycle through classification, leakage prevention, and de-identification
- Strengthening model security through adversarial training and integrity validation, and extending application/API security practices to cover AI-specific risks

• Secure AI Operations
- Monitoring AI systems in production for drift, bias, and abuse patterns such as high-volume querying or repeated jailbreak attempts
- Building AI-specific incident response capability and maintaining supply chain transparency through model provenance and SBOM/AI-BOM practices
