AI systems introduce security challenges that are fundamentally different from anything traditional cybersecurity was built to handle. LLM applications, retrieval pipelines, vector databases, and agent based automations create new vulnerabilities that can expose sensitive data, enable unauthorized actions, and compromise entire workflows. This course gives you a complete and practical framework for securing GenAI systems in real engineering environments.

You will learn how modern AI threats operate, how attackers exploit prompts, tools, and connectors, and how data can leak through embeddings, retrieval layers, or model outputs. The course walks you through every layer of the AI stack and shows you how to apply the right defenses at the right places, using a structured and repeatable security approach.

What you will learn

The full AI Security Reference Architecture across model, prompt, data, tools, and monitoring layers
How GenAI attacks work, including injection, leakage, misuse, and unsafe tool execution
How to use AI firewalls, filtering engines, and policy controls for runtime protection
AI SDLC best practices for dataset security, evaluations, red teaming, and version management
Data governance strategies for RAG pipelines, ACLs, encryption, filtering, and secure embeddings
Identity and access patterns that protect AI endpoints and tool integrations
AI Security Posture Management for risk scoring, drift detection, and policy enforcement
Observability and evaluation workflows that track model behavior and reliability

What is included

Architecture diagrams and control maps
Model and RAG threat modeling worksheets
Governance templates and security policies
Checklists for AI SDLC, RAG security, and data protection
Evaluation and firewall comparison frameworks
