Generative AI for Cybersecurity is a four-course specialization that helps professionals and career-switchers harness the power of AI to strengthen both offensive and defensive security. You'll gain hands-on experience using AI-driven tools for penetration testing, automated defense, phishing detection, and organizational culture change.
Basic IT or networking knowledge; familiarity with security or AI tools helpful but not required.
Across this specialization, you'll complete real-world projects that apply AI directly to cybersecurity tasks. In Course 1, you'll conduct AI-enhanced reconnaissance and vulnerability scanning using ethical penetration-testing tools. In Course 2, you'll automate blue-team workflows through AI-driven SOAR playbooks and network traffic analysis. In Course 3, you'll design and defend against AI-powered phishing and social engineering attacks using open-source tools like SniperPhish and PentestGPT. In Course 4, you'll build leadership projects that translate technical defense into cultural transformation—creating policies, ROI cases, and communication plans that make cybersecurity a shared responsibility.
