AI Security: Risks, Defences, and Safety. This course prepares cyber security professionals, developers, data scientists, and policy leaders to defend intelligent systems. As artificial intelligence integrates into critical infrastructure and applications, new cyber risks emerge, from adversarial attacks to data leakage. Developed by Macquarie University’s Cyber Skills Academy, this program aligns with emerging threats and international standards. You will gain real-world skills to: * Understand AI systems, architecture, and security risks (adversarial inputs, model poisoning, data leakage). * Assess and mitigate AI-driven cyber-physical risks in Operational Technology (OT) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS). * Navigate threats in AI deployments, including deepfakes, misinformation, ethical misuse, and privacy violations. * Apply security testing strategies and technical controls, such as encryption, red/purple/blue team exercises, and robustness benchmarking. * Align AI systems with Responsible AI frameworks, covering fairness, transparency, regulatory compliance, and trust. * Anticipate evolving risks from Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and deploy proactive defences. To succeed, learners should have a foundational understanding of cyber security concepts. This course provides the technical fluency, ethical awareness, and strategic insight to secure AI across industries.Lead the defence. Secure AI now.
