This course explores the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in cybersecurity, focusing on practical methods for threat detection, behavior analysis, and automated security solutions. Students will examine AI-driven approaches to malware detection, network intrusion analysis, and fraud prevention. Hands-on exercises and real-world case studies will provide experience in designing and implementing AI-based security solutions. By the end of the course, students will understand how to leverage AI techniques to enhance cybersecurity defenses and mitigate emerging threats. This information can also be applied to the students’ efforts to pass the CompTIA SecAI+ certification.
