Singapore – Cybersecurity firm Kaspersky has recently announced the introduction of its new AI-focused module within its automated security awareness platform (ASAP). This initiative aspires to equip professionals with the necessary skills to combat the evolving threats posed by AI-driven cyberattacks.

The new module, specifically tailored for addressing the growing demand for cyberskills-enhancing programmes related to AI topics, is structured into two levels, with each of them comprising seven detailed lessons.

In Level 1, the area of focus will be on understanding how fraudsters utilise AI for malicious purposes and ways to combat these tactics. Topics that will be covered include the creation of fake videos (such as identity theft in online conferences), counterfeit photographs, voice impersonation, and fraudulent services offered through AI.

On the other hand, Level 2 will explore the inherent risks of utilising artificial intelligence in a professional setting. This encompasses the dangers of inputting confidential data, decision-making pitfalls, copyright violations, AI jailbreaks, the ideological biases of neural networks, parameter manipulation, and the hacking of AI systems.

Furthermore, the course is designed for users with no prior knowledge of artificial intelligence. This ensures accessibility while also providing comprehensive training for strong cybersecurity practices.

Commenting about the launch, Tatyana Shumaylova, senior product marketing manager at Kaspersky Security Awareness, said, “As AI-driven cyber threats continue to evolve, it is critical professionals are equipped with the knowledge and skills to effectively mitigate these risks.”

“Our new AI-focused module in Kaspersky ASAP represents an important step towards empowering our users with comprehensive understanding of today’s cyber threat landscape and ways to counter them. Fostering vigilance and caution, they can combat even the new emerging threats in the digital environment while also strengthening their organisation’s defensive perimeter,” shared Shumaylova.
