Course Description

AI is already inside your organisation's attack surface. Security professionals who can't secure AI systems or use AI to strengthen their defences are going to be left behind. This course prepares you to pass the CompTIA SecAI+ CY0-001 exam and walk into that gap with verified, vendor-neutral credentials.

What You'll Learn

  • Map the full AI threat landscape using MITRE ATLAS, OWASP LLM Top 10, and the MIT AI Risk Repository and apply the right compensating controls per scenario

  • Identify and defend against AI-specific attacks: prompt injection, model poisoning, data poisoning, model inversion, membership inference, and AI supply chain attacks

  • Implement gateway controls — prompt firewalls, token limits, rate limiting, and modality restrictions to lock down LLM-facing attack surfaces

  • Use AI-enabled tools (chatbots, CLI plug-ins, MCP servers) to accelerate incident management, vulnerability analysis, and automated penetration testing

  • Apply the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, EU AI Act, ISO AI standards, and OECD guidelines to real corporate AI deployment decisions

  • Secure the full AI model lifecycle from data collection and preparation through deployment, monitoring, and feedback loops

  • Detect and audit for hallucinations, model bias, and AI cost anomalies across production environments

  • Leverage ChatGPT and Claude for practical security tasks including vulnerability management and threat intelligence workflows

  • Evaluate AI governance structures — AI Center of Excellence, shadow AI risk, sanctioned vs. unsanctioned model policies — and advise on compliant deployment

Why This Course

  • Built directly against the official CompTIA SecAI+ CY0-001 exam objectives with every domain and sub-objective

  • 11 hours of video content structured to match the four exam domains: Basic AI Concepts (17%), Securing AI Systems (40%), AI-assisted Security (24%), and AI GRC (19%)

  • 200+ knowledge-check quizzes distributed throughout, plus a full exam simulation at the end that mirrors the real CY0-001 format with 60 questions, 60 minutes, performance-based and multiple choice

  • Every student gets a PDF summary book and the complete slide deck so you're not hunting for notes when exam day arrives

Who This Is For

  • SOC analysts and security engineers who work alongside AI-integrated tools and need to understand the attack surface they're sitting in front of

  • IT pros — sysadmins, network engineers, helpdesk leads with 2+ years of hands-on experience who want to formalise their move into security roles

  • Security professionals preparing specifically for the CompTIA SecAI+ CY0-001 V1 certification exam

  • Not for you if you have zero IT background becuase this exam assumes 3–4 years of IT experience and 2 years in cybersecurity; the course assumes the same.

What You'll Walk Away With

You'll pass the CY0-001 exam prepared not just familiar with the objectives, but able to reason through performance-based questions on AI attack scenarios, control implementation, and GRC decisions. You'll also have a working vocabulary for AI security that holds up in interviews, in SOC conversations, and when your organisation asks you to evaluate an AI deployment.

Bottom Line

The SecAI+ is one of the first vendor-neutral certifications that treats AI as a security domain in its own right not a footnote. This course gives you the structured preparation to pass it on the first attempt. Enrol, work through it at your own pace, and come out the other side with a credential that means something.

This course really helped me prepare for the exam, and I’m happy to say that I passed. I did use some supplementary materials alongside the course, but the content provided a strong foundation and helped me understand the key concepts. My main recommendation would be to add more scenario-based practice questions and performance-based questions, since those were a big part of the actual exam. Other than that, the course was really great and I would definitely recommend it.

By Aaron Roy on 7/15/2026

The course material was good but some of the course was read verbatim without much additional context added.

By Kenny Powers on 6/27/2026

I looked at multiple courses for SecAI and this is definitely the best. While the other courses were either straight AI generated or just a boring teacher. This is great because this guy is actually in the class visually and he gives really great examples to explain the scenarios given. I would definitely enroll in another class. Great job!

By Kenley Anglade on 6/9/2026

Its okay. It seems the instructor is mainly reading from slide. I wish he would explain more

By Albert Glenn on 5/23/2026

Enjoying the course well detailed and easy to understand.

By Andres Picon on 5/21/2026

The instructor has great energy, a positive attitude, and strong communication skills, which make navigating the training easier. However, after going through several modules, I noticed that most of the videos mainly consist of reading the slides, which lessens the value of the lectures. On the occasions when the instructor shared real examples beyond the slides, it really helped deepen my understanding of the topics. I’d suggest focusing less on reading directly from the slides and more on sharing personal insights or additional examples. That would make the training even more engaging and impactful. Overall, thank you, it was a good training experience.

By Władysław Wachulec on 4/10/2026

Compared to other dry courses, this is a definite 5-star experience.

By Ramon Janssen on 4/3/2026

Nice course, very thorough overview of all the things you need to get your certificate

By Xander Olavic on 4/3/2026

I am enjoying the course so far. The instructor takes his time to explain and I am learning a lot. Thank you
